Scotland is home to a number of destinations perfect for those looking to enjoy autumn's bright colours on a domestic break.
Britons hoping to take advantage of the colourful changes in nature associated with autumn might want to head to Scotland.
The country is home to a number of gardens filled with trees and plants that burst into glorious colour at the turn of the season.
According to VisitScotland, some of the main highlights of an autumnal trip to the region include Benmore Botanic Gardens in Argyll, which harbours an "awe-inspiring" avenue lined with Giant Redwoods.
Another Argyll attraction, Ardkinglas Woodland Garden, is home to red squirrels and the remains of a 17th century mill, while Dawyck Botanic Gardens in the Scottish Borders is an arboretum packed with seasonal fruits such as acorns, crab apples, maple keys, fir cones, beech nuts and conkers.
Travellers might want to take out
holiday insurance for their trip to Scotland, particularly if they indulge in long walks to see the best of the country's scenery.
Other potential outdoor activities to indulge in during an autumn break in the country include golf, hiking and kayaking.
Even if you’re travelling within the UK, holiday insurance from Direct Travel Insurance is still a sensible purchase as the expense of dealing with issues on a holiday can be costly in any country.
