Discover Aberdeenshire while staying at the Britannia Waterside Hotel, which rests in its own gardens by the River Ugie, near Peterhead. Sightseeing takes in Duff House, a magnificent eighteenth century mansion, standing in landscaped grounds, with period rooms housing fine art and furniture. We also visit Banff where you’ll find one of the best preserved townscapes in Scotland. More treats include Fraserburgh, home to attractions such as the Museum of Scottish Lighthouses – a full size lighthouse built through the centre of a sixteenth century castle, and we call at the fishing port of Peterhead. A guided tour of Aberdeen City completes our adventure.
