Edinburgh holds the title for being the first<br />

designated UNESCO City of Literature in the<br />

world. It’s also the birthplace and home to<br />

some of the world’s most loved writers. JK<br />

Rowling wrote all the Harry Potter books here,<br />

Kate Atkinson calls Edinburgh home, Rebus<br />

and Ian Rankin are synonymous with the city<br />

and it’s where The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie was<br />

brought to life. Literary events, unique book<br />

shops and cafes, and the largest International<br />

Book Festival makes Edinburgh a chapter not<br />

to skip!<br />

The medieval streets of Norwich, UNESCO City<br />

of Literature, have plenty of tales to tell and<br />

some of the biggest crime writers and their fans<br />

of the genre in September. Readings, Q&As,<br />

workshops and book signings will take place in<br />

the Norwich Crime Writing Festival which is one<br />

of the UK’s fastest growing literary festivals.<br />

To further cement the literary heritage<br />

of Norwich, award-winning author Philip<br />

Pullman who wrote the fantasy trilogy His Dark<br />

Materials was born in the city, as was Black<br />

Beauty author Anna Sewell. The Noble<br />

Prize winning novelist Sir Kazuo Ishiguro,<br />

Ian McEwan, Rose Tremain and Emma Healey<br />

all studied here.<br />

An instant hit when it was published over 90<br />

years ago, the much-loved story of Tarka the<br />

Otter by Henry Williamson has never been out<br />

of print. When you visit North Devon you can’t<br />

fail to notice the influence the slippery mammal<br />

has had on the county! There’s Tarka Pottery,<br />

the Tarka Inn and of course, the Tarka Trail.<br />

The impressive 163 mile, figure of eight<br />

trail brings the book to life by following the<br />

route of the otter. From Sticklepath to<br />

Barnstaple, Bideford and Ilfracombe through<br />

parts of the South West Coast Path, Dartmoor<br />

Way and the Two Moors Way, you may just spot<br />

an otter on the way!<br />

Higher Bal walk, the spectacular South West<br />

Coast Path creates all the drama of Winston<br />

Graham’s popular novels. Following in the<br />

footsteps of old smugglers, the path takes in<br />

Cornwall’s rich industrial heritage of mining,<br />

quarrying, fishing and boat building.<br />

HAPPY<br />

HOGMANAY!<br />

Celebrating the New Year in Scotland has<br />

always been a big affair. For hundreds of years,<br />

Christmas was banned and it wasn’t until 1958<br />

that the day was a made a public holiday, with<br />

Boxing Day getting the same status in 1974.<br />

While most of the world celebrated Christmas,<br />

in Scotland it was just another working day with<br />

everyone looking forward to getting together<br />

with family and friends for the New Year, or<br />

Hogmanay celebrations.<br />

Starting on New Year’s Eve, Hogmanay goes<br />

on till 2 <strong>January</strong> and if you want to join in the<br />

party, Edinburgh is one of the places to be!<br />

Thousands of revellers party in the streets with<br />

a torch lit parade and fireworks over the famous<br />

castle. Bands, DJs and street performers keep<br />

the party atmosphere alive, which culminates<br />

in a massive group rendition of Auld Lang Syne.<br />

Dating back to the 1700s, the poem was written<br />

by Scotland’s National Bard, Robert Burns, and<br />

is now a global New Year’s Eve anthem.<br />

16


Happy Hogmanay!<br />

Other Hogmanay traditions include Redding<br />

the House. Like a spring clean, the house is<br />

cleaned for the New Year and evil spirits and<br />

disease chased away! First Footing happens<br />

after midnight when neighbours visit with<br />

shortbread or black bun in return for a wee<br />

dram! The first person to enter the house, the<br />

first foot, could bring good luck for the year<br />

ahead, especially if it’s a tall, dark, handsome<br />

stranger as opposed to a fair headed person<br />

who may have Viking roots!<br />

You cannot be in Scotland on New Year’s Eve<br />

and not attend a ceilidh! Gaelic music and<br />

traditional dancing kick-start the celebrations<br />

a few hours before midnight with the party<br />

continuing long into the next morning!<br />

Taking place on New Year’s Day, Loony Dook<br />

was started in 1987 as a possible hangover cure!<br />

With bagpipes playing from the river bank,<br />

thousands of people hurtle into the icy waters<br />

of the Firth of Forth at Queensferry for a dip!<br />

17


If you decide the street party atmosphere of<br />

Edinburgh is for you, the Village Hotel Edinburgh<br />

is a great base for joining in all the celebrations.<br />

Situated close to the Royal Botanic Garden and not<br />

far from Edinburgh Zoo and Murrayfield Stadium,<br />

the modern hotel offers great accommodation<br />

and superb leisure facilities with a pub and<br />

restaurant, gym and spa available to guests.<br />

With an indoor swimming pool too, a post-party<br />

hangover cure doesn’t have to include the<br />

waters of the Firth of Forth either!<br />

18


Happy Hogmanay!<br />

If you fancy escaping for a few days after the hurly<br />

burly of a city in celebration, head to the Orkney<br />

Islands where there is much to discover. Ancient<br />

monuments dating back to the Stone Age, Viking<br />

graffiti, museums and traditional crafts plus flora,<br />

fauna and wildlife beckon.<br />

Getting to Orkney is a 45 minute ferry trip or flight<br />

and once there, it’s hard to not fall for the charm of<br />

this unique landscape and the stunning skyscapes,<br />

where you may also witness the Northern Lights.<br />

Overlooking the Loch of Stenness, the Standing<br />

Stones Hotel is a superb start to an Orkney stay,<br />

where winter horizons and summer sunsets paint<br />

the perfect picture postcard scene.<br />

Well-appointed en-suite accommodation with all<br />

the facilities today’s traveller needs, plus a choice<br />

of dining options are available. Enjoy breakfast with<br />

views leading to the World Heritage sites, Standing<br />

Stones and the Ring of Brodgar. For evening dining,<br />

a menu of locally sourced produce from the land and<br />

sea is served. The hotel also has a take-away menu<br />

so guests can arrange a pack-up picnic to take on a<br />

day out.<br />

Dolphin spotting and challenging links golf could<br />

be part of a New Year break at the Golf View Hotel<br />

and Spa in Nairn, near Inverness. Located on the<br />

banks of the Moray Firth, the historic building is<br />

surrounded by idyllic gardens which lead down to<br />

the shore. Nairn Golf Course is close-by and will test<br />

the talented golfer as well as the amateur. Several<br />

championships have taken place here, including the<br />

2012 Curtis Cup and 1999 Walker Cup, and the course<br />

scores close to the top ten in the 100 best Scottish<br />

golf courses.<br />

While at the Golf View Hotel make some time for<br />

the spa and a seaweed treatment. Made from local<br />

ingredients including seaweed from the Hebrides,<br />

the vitamin and mineral rich treatment will leave<br />

you nourished and hydrated.<br />

20


Happy Hogmanay!<br />

When only two golf courses will do, Murrayshall<br />

Country House Hotel and Golf Club near Perth<br />

will conveniently divide your time with their<br />

18-hole courses. Set in 350 acres of stunning<br />

park and woodland, you’re likely to see deer,<br />

hare and wild birds as well as spectacular<br />

views of the Perthshire mountains.<br />

Clay pigeon shooting and fishing can be<br />

arranged but if you just want some quality<br />

time around a roaring fire place, you’re in the<br />

right place! Award-winning dining will whet your<br />

appetite and Stutts Bar, named after the golf course<br />

designer, is the perfect place for a post-dinner tipple.<br />

Charles Rennie Macintosh has long been recognised<br />

as one of Scotland’s most creative figures.<br />

To appreciate the iconic architect’s work a visit to<br />

The Hill House in Helensburgh is recommended.<br />

Considered to be one of his masterpieces, the house<br />

showcases the geometric lines and simple elegance<br />

synonymous with the designer and his wife, Margaret<br />

Macdonald.<br />

Between Helensburgh and the village of Rhu, on<br />

the banks of the Gareloch, is the Ardencaple Hotel.<br />

The former 19th century coaching inn is perfectly<br />

located for visiting The Hill House as well as Three<br />

Lochs Way. Incorporating Loch Lomond, Gareloch<br />

and Loch Long, the scenic 34 mile walk can be<br />

completed in three to four days. The trail takes<br />

visitors through the many communities dotted<br />

along the Clyde Sea lochs, past sites of Special<br />

Scientific Interest and clan battle fields. The area is<br />

home to red squirrels and the West Highland railway<br />

line is never too far away if you decide walking is too<br />

much! You should also visit the peaceful village<br />

of Rhu and its pretty marina.<br />

Located in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding<br />

Natural Beauty, the family-run Cumberland Inn<br />

overlooks the River South Tyne in the market town<br />

of Alston. It’s ideally placed for discovering the<br />

Pennine Way and the Lake District. It’s also a good<br />

stop-off point for the Coast to Coast cycle route.<br />

Cumberland Inn is a traditional pub with five<br />

en-suite guest rooms which include a TV, hospitality<br />

tray, toiletries and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy<br />

traditional ciders and cask ales from award-winning<br />

local breweries, along with home cooked bar meals<br />

and the choice of a cooked or cold breakfast.<br />

Pack-up lunches can also be organised. In the<br />

summer enjoy al fresco dining and great views<br />

from the patio.<br />

“I’d recommend that if you think of passing through<br />

Alston, change your mind and stay a day or two,<br />

especially at this inn.”<br />
