The harbours and maritime heritage of the town are major attractions for visitors and Peterhead Bay now provides a docking point for cruise ships. The town also has many shops, bars and restaurants which make the most of the available fresh seafood and any Peterhead hotel forms the ideal base from which to enjoy the wonderful natural environment of Buchan which benefits from long summer days and less rainfall than many other parts of Scotland.
Sea-going adventures are common activities for leisure cruises, fishing or watching the abundance of sea life and the long rugged coastline itself provides ample opportunities for exploring the sand dunes and enjoying the beautiful beaches, a landscape most awe inspiring at sunrise and sunset. Enjoy the range of water sports or simply take in the views from one of the most attractive regions of Scotland. Bird watchers and wildlife enthusiasts will certainly find plenty of scope for leisure time and all lovers of the great outdoors will enjoy the rolling hills, woodlands and charming villages, whether on foot, cycle or horseback.Perhaps the most popular outdoor pursuit in the area is golf and within the Grampian Highlands there are some 70 superb golf courses to choose from. The local courses of Peterhead, Longside and Cruden Bay are all within easy reach of all the Peterhead hotels. The maritime history and culture of Peterhead are detailed in the museums in the town as well as in the existing architecture and street plan. There are also many historic sites of interest in the area which date back much further than the town itself. The North East has more stone circles and prehistoric sites than any other area of the UK and even has its own white horse cut into Mormond Hill, the highest point in Buchan, joined by a white stag which sits on the other side of the hill. Although not ancient, these 18th and 19th century quartz symbols cut into the landscape are popular visitor attractions. Peterhead hotels will have all the tourist information on the area available to guests. There are many fine Peterhead accommodation options, ranging from self catering lodges, through excellent Peterhead guest houses to larger and more exclusive hotels which will offer a range of features for both leisure and business travellers. All the hospitality and home comforts of the Peterhead guest houses are evident from the hotels too and guests should expect a hearty breakfast as an integral part of their Peterhead accommodation whatever the style and status of the property. Peterhead hotels tailored for business guests will incorporate all the necessary tools to conduct business in the city, such as print, copy and fax facilities as well as computers and wired and wireless internet connectivity. Other Peterhead hotels, especially country house type establishments may offer a more comprehensive selection of leisure facilities and often also country pursuits. Whichever Peterhead hotel you choose will depend on your budget, requirements and taste but whether for a family holiday or business trip you will find all you require from an excellent selection available. |
