Inverness is the centrepiece of a beautiful part of northern Scotland featuring an abundance of picturesque villages and ancient castles nestling amongst vast swathes of fertile farmland. Inverness Castle is the first stop on most tourists' sightseeing agenda, followed by a couple of hours at the nearby Inverness Museum and Art Gallery. There's also the old Victorian Market to explore, an indoor shopping arcade that's been serving the local community since 1890. Those with time on their hands and an interest in Scottish military history can visit Culloden, the site of Scotland's last great battle in 1746. You can get the most out of your car hire in Inverness with an exhilarating drive along the coast to the pretty seaside town of Dornoch, noted for its ancient castle and cathedral, before playing a round of golf on one of the region's championship courses. Inverness is also the natural base from which to explore the Scottish Highlands, a glorious mountain region in the north of the country that's home to Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the British Isles. This is motoring country at its very best and the most fitting way to end a road-trip around the Highlands is a tour and wee dram at one of the many whisky distilleries located in the Inverness area, including Cardhu, Glenmorangie and Glen Moray.
