We are welcoming more and more guests from India each year, to our 5-star hotel in the Highlands of Scotland. Here, we answer some useful questions to help you plan your trip from India…
Do I need a visa to visit Scotland?
Scotland is the northernmost country in Great Britain and part of the United Kingdom (UK). Yes, visitors from India do require a visa to enter the UK. Find more information on the visas and travel documents required on the UK Gov website and allow plenty of time to apply.
How do I get from India to Scotland?
The easiest way to get here is to fly to London Heathrow, and then take a connecting flight to a Scottish airport such as Inverness, Edinburgh or Glasgow. The journey from India may take around 14 hours. However, there are many different routes available. To visit us here in the Scottish Highlands, the best airport to fly into is Inverness. Check flights. Once here, it’s just a short taxi ride to Ness Walk Hotel. Alternatively, you can arrange a luxury airport transfer with us.
What’s the weather like in Scotland?
The weather in Scotland is very changeable, so be prepared for all weathers from sunshine to snow. In the Highlands, temperatures can reach below 0°C in winter and up to 20°C in summer, but usually, it’s somewhere in between.
