Scotland is a beautiful country that is less visited by tourists than other European countries. This will help me plan the Scottish circuit for 14 days. Which can be reached by car. There are many car rental companies in Scotland. The biggest is Arnold Clark. I also recommend downloading the WikiCamps UK application. It facilitates accommodation and also works off-line. Financially, when the car is fully occupied, count on a budget of up to CZK 20,000 / person with everything. The final route is here https://mapy.cz/s/324nN
