Hey, all, I've found PS travel advice to be really helpful on prior trips, so I'm fishing for advice again.
DH and I just bought tickets this morning to go to England, Wales and Scotland for 11 days. We leave next week. Last year around Labor Day we took a trip to Ireland and really loved it (which inspired this trip). For that trip, we had a map, a loose itinerary and a rental car. The plan was to just stay at a B&B based on how far we got that day--we loved it. We're hoping to do the same thing on this trip, but I'm not quite sure how easy it is to find a B&B on the fly in Scotland (where we are spending the most time). My husband is a Rick Steves nut, so we have the Great Britain book and have read it over the past week, I'm just wondering if anybody has done this type of trip in Scotland and if finding lodging without reservations was an issue at all? Thank you!!
