The Scottish Islands is a term used to describe a large amount of Islands in and around the nation of Scotland, and collectively they account for a large portion of the tourist trade in the region thanks to the numerous holiday homes dotted around the area. One of the unique features of the Scottish Islands is their isolation; when staying in holiday homes in one of these beautiful locations you will quickly discover how relaxing, peaceful and serene the area actually is. There are over 790 Scottish Islands in total, many of them are completely uninhabited and thus not suitable for holiday breaks, however many are sparsely populated and one can rent a tremendous variety of holiday homes for various periods of time throughout the year.

The main holiday destinations in the Scottish Islands are Shetland and Orkney. Both of these locations are quite far from the mainland and as such are much more populous than other Scottish Islands, however even then one can still find solitude, peace and quiet when staying there. Orkney in particular is a very popular tourist destination with a wealth of things to see and do, such as visit the many historic and ancient monuments and sites that the location has to offer. The Inner and Outer Hebrides are also popular Scottish Islands destinations that many people choose to visit whilst holidaying; they are spectacularly beautiful locations to visit full of mystery and intrigue and if you require a relaxing holiday in stunning scenery there is simply no better place to visit.

The geography varies widely across the Scottish Islands; some places such as Skye are very mountainous and dramatic whilst others are more flat and subtle. Many of the Scottish Islands are packed full of historical sites to visit thanks to successive waves of Celtic, Norse and Germanic settlers, raiders and traders who have visited in the past.
