Time difference Scotland
There is only a one hour time difference in the UK. Summer and winter, there is one hour less in our neighbors across the Channel. So we gain one hour at the arrival, practical.
Opening hours Scotland
To see / To do Scotland
Most museums and castles open between 9 and 10 a.m. and close between 5 and 6 p.m. (4 p.m. in winter). Pubs close between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m. and often serve food until 9 p.m. In summer, attraction opening times tend to be longer.
Enjoying yourself Scotland
Mealtimes and eating habits are not the same in France as in the UK. A deliciously pantagruelic breakfast is followed by a more frugal lunch.Afternoon tea is the perfect in-between lunch and afternoon tea, with sandwiches, scones, cakes and tea (it can also be served with coffee or more festive drinks in the "gin" version). However, the time to pay attention is in the evening. Dinner is served from 5pm. Most of the time, even in medium-sized towns, if you're looking for dinner around 8 p.m., you're likely to run out of food in pubs and be turned away from restaurants, which will be fully booked. And if you're traveling with the family, be aware that some establishments refuse to accept children in the evening or after a certain time (sometimes 7 p.m., sometimes 8 p.m.).
Take a break Scotland
Tearooms often close around 4 or 5 pm, but pubs are open much later, until midnight, 1 hour or more, depending on the day of the week.
(To) please yourself Scotland
Stores are generally open between 9am and 5pm, and most are open on Sundays.
