Info on the top 3:
Number 3. Saint Benedict’s Abbey, Fort Augustus.
This spacious property, accommodating up to four guests, promises a stay unlike any other. Here you'll find beautifully stained-glass windows depicting the Scottish Saints and large stone arches thoughtfully incorporated into the room design. Each room is designed beautifully and furnished tastefully, paying great attention to detail, to make your stay as comfortable as it is breathtaking.
Fort Augustus is a picturesque village, and nearby many of the shots from the Harry Potter movies were filmed. Hop onboard the Hogwarts Express with West Coast Railways and remember to take some pictures as you pass the Glenfinnan Viaduct. We also highly recommend a visit to the Castle of Eilean Donan. A grand fortress built to protect the lands against the Viking raiders.
Number 2. The Gilmerton House, Athelstaneford.
For our runner up, let's dive into the splendid marvel of The Gilmerton House, located in Athelstaneford. Housing an impressive ten bedrooms, each with their very own unique charm and elegance, the Gilmerton House is an epitome of luxury.
Holding the torch of heritage, the house has been in the Kinloch family since the early 16 century. The rooms are beautifully furnished in the spirit of the Scottish legacy. The mansion was recently restored and renovated, so guests get to experience the best of both worlds, and it does so with a sustainable ethos.
But Gilmerton House isn't all about luxury and history; it's also a golfing paradise. Known as Scotland's Golf Coast, East Lothian is home to some of the world's finest golf courses. You can play at renowned places like Muirfield, North Berwick, and Gullane. And if that's not enough, Saint Andrews, the home of golf, is just a short trip away.
Number 1. The Dollarbeg Castle, Clackmannanshire.
Now, our top pick of the most incredible AirBnBs in Scotland - The Dollarbeg Castle in Clackmannanshire.
The Dollarbeg Castle gives a whole new meaning to living the noble life. Offering a unique vacation location, this enchanting castle boasts of three themed bedrooms, a cinema room, and a tower. And let's not forget the private rooftop terrace, from where you can soak in the panoramic views of the lush countryside and the awe-inspiring Ochil Hills. You'd be sleeping in four-poster beds with luxurious bedding, and stepping into rooms that have been refurbished and presented to an incredibly high standard, yet retain their original character.
Our home coastline is full of cool wee places, so let's join up the dots and walk the whole thing!
We didn't really know about this one until Alicja found a great book on Amazon - 'Angus Coastal Trail' by James Carron. Buying the book was the easy bit, we filmed the difficult bit! Follow us as we try to walk the full traditional Angus Coast from Invergowrie (just outside Dundee) all the way to River North Esk (just north of Montrose). Spoiler Alert: it wasn't as easy as we expected!
Filmed 30th April - 3rd May 2023 in Angus, Scotland.

Traveling Scotland
Arbroath (/ɑːrˈbroʊθ/) or Aberbrothock (Scottish Gaelic: Obar Bhrothaig[ˈopəɾ ˈvɾo.ɪkʲ]) is a former royal burgh and the largest town in the council area of Angus, Scotland, with a population of 23,902. It lies on the North Sea coast some 16 miles (25.7 km) ENE of Dundee and 45 miles (72.4 km) SSW of Aberdeen. There is evidence of settlement in the Iron Age, but Arbroath's history as a town began with the founding of Arbroath Abbey in 1178. It grew much during the Industrial Revolution with the expansion of the flax and then the jute industry and of the engineering sector. A new harbour laid out in 1839; by the 20th century, Arbroath was one of Scotland's larger fishing ports. It is notable for the Declaration of Arbroath and the Arbroath smokie. Arbroath Football Club holds the world record for the number of goals scored in a professional football match, winning 36–0 against Aberdeen Bon Accord in the Scottish Cup in 1885.
Population - 23,940 (mid-2016 est.)

Interior Of J M Barrie Birthplace With Music On History Visit To Kirriemuir Angus Scotland
Tour Scotland short 4K travel video clip, with Scottish music, of the interior of the house of the birthplace of J. M. Barrie on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Kirriemuir in Angus, Britain, United Kingdom. Sir James Matthew Barrie was born in Kirriemuir on 9 May 1860, to a conservative Calvinist family. His father David Barrie was a modestly successful weaver. His mother Margaret Ogilvy assumed her deceased mother's household responsibilities at the age of eight. Barrie was the ninth child of ten, two of whom died before he was born, all of whom were schooled in at least the three Rs in preparation for possible professional careers. At the age of 8, Barrie was sent to the Glasgow Academy. When he was 10, he returned home and continued his education at the Forfar Academy. At 14, he left home for Dumfries Academy. Barrie enrolled at the University of Edinburgh where he wrote drama reviews for the Edinburgh Evening Courant. He graduated on 21 April 1882. He then moved to London, where he wrote a number of successful novels and plays. There he met the Llewelyn Davies boys, who inspired him to write about a baby boy who has magical adventures in Kensington Gardens, first included in Barrie's adult novel The Little White Bird, then to write Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, a fairy play about an ageless boy and an ordinary girl named Wendy who have adventures in the fantasy setting of Neverland. Barrie died of pneumonia at a nursing home in Manchester Street, Marylebone, London, England, on 19 June 1937. He was buried at Kirriemuir next to his parents and two of his siblings. . Bon Scott of AC/DC was born in nearby Forfar and lived in Kirriemuir for a short time from 1947 until 1950 when his family emigrated to Australia, where the family lived in the suburb of Sunshine for four years before moving to Freemantle, Western Australia.

Restenneth priory, Forfar
The origins of Restenneth Abbey are ancient dating back to the reign of King Nechtan of the Picts. In 715 King Nechtan asked Abbot Ceolfrid for assistance in the form of craftsmen able to build churches in stone and offered in return to dedicate the first church he built to St. Peter. This first church stood on the site later occupied by Restenneth Priory. Documentary evidence that the first church here was stone has led some to suggest that parts of the base of the tower that still stands date all the way back to Nechtan's time. Others suggest that the earliest identifiable parts of the church date back to the 1100's
