Tarbat Discovery Centre, Tain, Scotland, United Kingdom

Ages ago, Scotland had early settlers called the Picts who were composed of tribes who speak in Celtic language. In the Tarbat Discovery Centre, the Pictish history and culture in that area was preserved for local and international visitors to learn about their history, culture, and life. Rich in historical and archaeological accounts of the Picts, the place is located in Scotland and is deemed as the only Pictish Monastic National Monument in the place. The Centre includes a museum, which explains to visitors the mystery of the Pictish art, carvings, and civilization. 

Tain is the oldest royal burgh in Scotland surrounded by towns of Edderton, Rockfield and Nigg. Abundant in various activities and attractions, the town has a number of hotels where travelers around the area can take a rest for the night. Interestingly the architecture of the hotels around the town are structured to give visitors an ambiance of historical royalty. One example of this is the Mansfield Castle Hotel, an old-fashioned but cozy abode that offers a luxurious Victorian-style accommodation. On the other hand, a nearer and budget-friendly stay option would be the Castle Hotel perfect for backpackers and couples. This accommodation offers beachfront views since it is located in the Portmahomack Harbour. Guests who will be staying and would like to explore beyond the Tarbat Discovery Centre may check the Tarbat Ness Lighthouse located north of the centre, in order to admire the spectacular scenery of the sea. Another thing that guests may visit is the Glenmorangie Distillery, which crafts the popular Glenmorangie scotch whisky. Guests may book a tour around the distillery to learn more about the process of whisky making and of course, taste samples of this refined concoction as well.
