The Sport of Kings in Scotland

Even though there are only about a hundred races run in Scotland throughout the year, horse racing is still considered a serious sport. Horse racing in Scotland is not taken lightly, and every owner, jockey and trainer in the industry is as dedicated to horse racing as any other anywhere in the world. Spectators are allowed to be a little more casual, but are still required to follow a smart casual dress code. Members of the horse racing fraternity are usually dressed in ties and jackets, with the ladies trying to win the best-dressed trophy at the race day.

Luss

Situated on the banks of the tranquil Loch Lomond in Scotland, the village of Luss has an old-world air about it. Many of the cottages in Luss were originally built to accommodate cotton mill and slate quarry workers during the 18th and 19th centuries. These cottages have been beautifully restored and the village has been designated a “Conservation Village” to preserve its unique historical aspects.
