Edinburgh’s winter appeal lasts well beyond a stro Edinburgh’s winter appeal lasts well beyond a stroll around the Christmas market.

There are Old Town closes to explore, Georgian streets to wander and warming bowls of cullen skink after a cold afternoon. Then comes Hogmanay, with its own traditions and a different energy altogether.

Our second Christmas journey across Britain and Ireland brings together The Balmoral, Kimpton Charlotte Square and a separate Perthshire escape at Gleneagles.

Would you choose an Edinburgh Christmas, a Scottish New Year or a few quieter days in the countryside?

Belfast at Christmas deserves more than a quick ci Belfast at Christmas deserves more than a quick circuit of the market.

There are mornings browsing St George’s, evenings in the Cathedral Quarter and dinners worth lingering over. Stay among The Merchant’s Victorian grandeur, enjoy Grand Central’s skyline views or slow the pace at Culloden Estate and Spa.

Our first Christmas journey across Britain and Ireland explores Belfast beyond the stalls, with three five-star stays and time for the city itself.

A planning detail: the 2026 Christmas Market runs from 14 November to 22 December.

Would you choose a city stay or a quieter escape beside Belfast Lough? Share your favourite Belfast discoveries below.

Four destinations, four distinct stories—and a lovely place to return to at the end of each evening.

Our latest **Latitude Lines** feature explores the season with curiosity, cultural context and considered stays. Read it at lovinglifeloving.com.
