For the lovely people that you will meet...definately.

Bitter cold just means more layers and extra socks.

Defo go to Scotland, the people are the warmest in the whole country, will eliminate the whole 'freezing your arse off'

Cos of the snow and ice, it might not be the safest time to go, may restrict you from doing lots of touring too.

Thanks guys I don't want to run away from snow to more snow. I have heard that both countries are beautiful but summer fares are pricey.

Most of the stuff to do is outdoors anyway right?

^ if you want to see some of the scenery there and take pics etc, then yup , best to go when its less cold i think

yeh alot of things are outdoor such as castle and scenery etc, you could look at visiting around march, april time instead of waiting til the summer when the prices go up :)
