Scotland in winter is truly magical. With a unique combination of festive events, festivals, landscapes, food, drink and more, Scotland makes a pretty special package during the cold months. No one does winter quite like Scotland and it really is a wonderful country to visit for an off-season Break. Here, we will attempt to answer the most common questions that people have regarding a Scottish winter. We believe that it is the prettiest place to visit during the festive season!
Winter runs from approximately mid-November until the end of March. This can vary however, as the country has been known to see snow falls in April also!
Contrary to what you may have heard, Scotland has a pretty temperate climate, even in winter. The day time averages are around 5/7 degrees Celsius (41/45 degrees Fahrenheit). The country shows much higher temperatures compared to other places on its latitude.
It’s hard to say and really depends very much on where you will be visiting. Freezing conditions and snow are more likely to be found in the North whilst the West may experience more rain and snow than the East. In general, you can expect cold and crisp weather so you should definitely pack some thermal clothes especially if you intend to do any of the Winter walks. Extreme weather rarely lasts very long in Scotland however.
We do get snow in Scotland however, it very rarely lies on the ground. Again, this will be very much dependent on where you are travelling to.
Although the weather can sometimes impact on transport links, the transport system in Scotland is very good and can cope with the change in weather pretty well. Scotland has a good road network and roads are gritted very regularly when it is known that temperatures will plunge below freezing.
At the very beginning and very end of Winter, the daylight hours range from around 7am – 6pm. In the middle of the season and certainly close to the longest day of the year, daylight hours can range from 8:45am – 3:30pm! Of course, the further north you go, the later the sun will rise and the earlier the sun will set.
If you are lucky you may be able to see the Northern Lights. It is unlikely that you will see these however unless you are travelling very far north within the country.
Most of our world-famous castles and attractions are opened throughout the year however, you should always check the website ahead of time to be certain. There are also many Christmas Markets and Festive Activities that you can do as an alternative to take in the Scottish culture.
The snow sports season can start as early as December and has been known to last into May in the past. This varies depending on snow fall of course so we would check the snow conditions first before booking anything.
There are lots of magical walking routes and trails that you can undertake during your visit to our beautiful country. The Visit Scotland website has lots of useful information on some of the best walking routes.

Glasgow City Flats manage two, two-bedroom properties in the Lancefield Quay development in Glasgow City Centre. The Lancefield Apartments are hugely popular with our holiday and leisure guests and therefore provide an excellent central location in a home away from home environment for the whole family. The floor to ceiling windows in each apartment consequently offer an abundance of natural light and incredible views of the Squinty Bridge and the SSE Hydro/Armadillo. As an added bonus, our Lancefield Apartments come with one private parking space for a small additional fee. The apartments offer space and comfort for your stay and come with gas central heating, free Wi-Fi and a fully equipped kitchen also.

Accommodation can often be one of the most expensive parts of any City Break. With the growing trend of budget airlines and cheap flight tickets, we can now get our hands on great value air fares however, we end up having to pay over the odds for accommodation. This results in a short City Break costing almost as much as week-long Beach Holiday! Choosing a Serviced Apartment as opposed to a Hotel room will ensure that you receive a more economical and comfortable ‘home away from home’ experience. Although Hotel rooms are great for short visits, where cooking your own meals is not relevant, Serviced Apartments can offer the opportunity to fully settle in to your accommodation for the full length of your stay and moreover, feel totally at home in your surroundings.
If you want to make your City Break more affordable, choosing a Serviced Apartment may be the way to go. With your own individual apartment, you have the freedom to use the kitchen facilities to keep eating-out costs to a minimum. Most Serviced Apartments come with a fully equipped kitchen so you can make your meals in house. Furthermore, most Serviced Apartments include laundry facilities within the accommodation. Again, this saves time and money with regards to laundry fees which are often attached as extras in traditional Hotels.
If you are travelling with children, you will understand the difficulties that this may present. Bedtime can be particularly taxing in a hotel room when everyone is sleeping in the same room. With a Serviced Apartment however, the children have their own separate bedroom and you can relax without worry of waking them up. Furthermore, Serviced accommodation offers more space for your family to really enjoy the time away from home. With an abundance of closet and living space, the whole family can feel comfortable in their holiday apartment.
Large businesses are more often finding that employees are more productive when staying in Serviced Accommodation as opposed to a Hotel room. Serviced accommodation not only offers more space and comfort than a hotel room, but it also provides employees with a ‘home away from home’. Instead of having to eat, sleep and work in the one small space, a Serviced Apartment offers the business traveller an entire apartment for their short (or long) stay in the City. A perfect way to ensure employees are happy and productive on their business trip!
It is often less expensive to stay for a week in Serviced accommodation than it is to stay in a Hotel. This is particularly the case with bigger families where Hotels traditionally charge a ‘per person rate’. The reason why Serviced Apartments can keep their costs lower is down to factors such as no bar/restaurant/room service costs. This means that the cost of Serviced accommodation is reduced significantly compared to Hotel stays. The cost of eating out whilst visiting a City is reduced in a Serviced Apartment by having access to a fully equipped kitchen to make your own meals. Having the flexibility to use the apartment’s laundry facilities reduces the cost of laundry fees which are also found within standard Hotel charges.
It’s not just Hotels that have the prime location spots within each major City. Serviced Apartments also adopt a premier standpoint within the City’s epicentre. Location is often one of the deciding factors when booking accommodation so proximity to the City Centre is key. With a Serviced Apartment, you won’t be far away to come home and relax after a day of exploring the new City.
In summary, Serviced Apartments have much more to offer than your standard Hotel Room:
