While this year looks like being different, with only limited pandemic restrictions remaining, the Omicron variant has led to further uncertainty.

And for some, the thought of a packed party or busy pub will still seem like a risk too far as we bring in 2022.

But there are other options, with Scotland’s hospitality industry keen to welcome you to hotels, B&Bs and self catering accomodation over the holidays.

Demand is high, but it’s not too late to book a winter escape.

These 10 accomodation options still have availability for the weekend of December 31-January 2 – from cosy cabins in the Highlands to luxury hotels in the Borders.

They are all available to book on www.booking.com.
