If youve never been to the Scottish Highlands and islands before, be prepared for an encounter with the dreaded midge. These tiny, 2mm-long blood-sucking flies appear in huge swarms in summer, and can completely ruin a holiday if youre not prepared to deal with them.
They proliferate from late May to mid-September, but especially mid-June to mid-August which unfortunately coincides with the main tourist season and are most common in the western and northern Highlands. Midges are at their worst during the twilight hours, and on still, overcast days strong winds and bright sunshine tend to discourage them.
The only way to combat them is to cover up, particularly in the evening. Wear long-sleeved, light-coloured clothing (midges are attracted to dark colours) and, most importantly, use a reliable insect repellent.

Regenerating and evolving at a dizzying pace, this city is edgy, modish and downright ballsy. Its Victorian architectural legacy is now swamped with stylish bars and top-notch restaurants, and a hedonistic club culture to bring out your nocturnal instincts. Glasgows pounding live-music scene is one of the best in Britain, and accessible through countless venues dedicated to home-grown beats.
Yet nightlife is only the beginning. Top-drawer museums and galleries abound, and the citys proud industrial and artistic heritage is innovatively displayed. Charles Rennie Mackintoshs sublime works dot the town, while the River Clyde, traditionally associated with Glasgows earthier side, is now a symbol of the citys renaissance.
Glaswegians are proud of their working-class background and leftist traditions. Glasgow combines urban mayhem and black humour and is so friendly, its almost unnerving. Shrug off any restraint and immerse yourself in a down-to-earth metropolis thats all about fun.
February The drizzle wont lift? Maroon yourself in one of Glasgows fabulous pubs or clubs.
June The West End Festival, the Proms and the Jazz Festival make it music heaven.
August Glasgows super-friendly at any time, but in sunshine theres no happier city in Britain.
