    It’s the end of another school term so why not look at holiday dates for a short break with the family? Snaptrip offers all sorts of holiday accommodation across the United Kingdom from England and Wales to Scotland and Northern Ireland. Holidays in Scotland offer something for everyone all year round from Easter Monday, to the half term autumn holidays, right through to Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Enjoy outdoor adventure, history and culture, and peace and quiet amidst stunning scenery. 

    There’s no need to wait until the summer holidays to treat yourself to a week’s break. Our fully equipped holiday properties are available all year round - even over bank holidays for a long weekend stay. Some public holidays in Scotland are even better as local councils go all out to celebrate the likes of Robert Burns Night, St Andrews day and Guy Fawkes and bonfire night. You could visit a huge city like Edinburgh, home of the Scottish Parliament or get away from it all around the fascinating wildlife of the Shetland Islands.

    We have a huge range of self-catering properties to choose from, and our customer service team is always busy trying to make sure our customers get the best prices guaranteed. So whether you’re a teacher looking for a romantic half term break away from marking homework, or you’re after a family holiday to enjoy with the kids, check out our amazing holiday properties today. 

    Best locations in Scotland

    Who says that school holidays can’t be fun and educational? There’s so much to see and do in Scotland from outdoor adventure to wildlife spotting and brushing up on a bit of royal history.
