One of the wonderful things about the UK is the seasons. It is difficult to pick the best time to visit as each season has its own magic. From December to March it can be very cold, and certainly, in Scotland, it is wise to expect snow when the temperatures drop. Cosy evenings can be spent in front of open fires, enjoying good food and wine with friends and family. April to May is when there are real signs of new life with Spring and the daffodils are displaying their bright yellow flowers, lambs and calves are being born in great numbers and are cavorting around the fields. In the summer from June to August is when it is hottest and the evenings are long and can be spent outside enjoying the fresh smells of summer. The Autumn from September to November is equally wonderful with the leaves turning golden brown and slowly falling from the trees. Often there are beautiful, dry and crisp days that can be enjoyed outside exploring. In short, it is really a matter of opinion when it is best to visit!
