    Do yourself a favour, save time and money and enjoy the food, people and culture. Stop at Durham and enjoy your stay, then turn round and go home.

    10/10 for recognising the quote, but the joke was a bit wasted on me. I haven't lived in Glasgow since the mid 80s, so my local knowledge lets me down.

    That's the plan. Or invade England. Either or.

    I take it you have a car?

    I would definitely suggest staying at the Crieff Hydro as Pud suggested. That way you can be in Edinburgh in about 80-90 minutes, the east neuk of Fife (St Andrew, Pittenweem etc.) in about an hour and you can explore Perthshire and the Trossachs. I'd suggest Dunkeld and the Hermitage too.

    Fun fact: 'neuk' is Dutch for '****'. (My current location means '****ing in the kitchen')

    Well it looks the same as the Glasgow one.

    Maybe ours were higher than yours?

    The Belgrove Hotel. Still there though it's a fair bit away from the Barras.
