Hidden Scotland Magazine 12

This is a bi-annual magazine is a guide to Scotland’s hidden gems. A coffee table stable that will provide inspiration and information for travels around the country. Founded by Jack Cairney in 2016, looking to inspire others to travel to and around Scotland but always sharing the message to roam responsibly take only photographs and leave only footprints.

Issue 12 published Spring/Summer 2026.

This is the 12th edition of Hidden Scotland Magazine, and the articles dive into some of the country’s most spectacular corners. Over 150 pages, you’ll encounter people and places with rich and meaningful tales to tell. We visit the quiet bays of the Borders, travel to the green contours of the Isle of Rum, meet experts in ceramics and wildlife film-making, and turn deserved attention to everything from modern lifestyle stores to medieval castles.

A common theme in the issue is a sense of character and purpose. We round up some of the country’s best farm shops, all of which reconnect people with local produce; visit a truly stylish selection of independent boutique hotels; and take a bracing dip in some of Scotland’s most notable open-air lidos.

The magazine is beautifully printed and of high quality but the intention is for it to be well used and to become a point of reference, they encourage this with dedicated note pages at different stages of the magazine.
