November 2015
Undiscovered Scotland is changing. A totally new look and feel is the most obvious difference. At least as important for a site that is widely used by visitors travelling around Scotland is that the new design is fully responsive, meaning that it can be viewed at any screen size on any device from a smartphone via a tablet to a large screen desktop. It will take a little time for this transformation to be applied right across the site, so please bear with us while the process is under way. At present all our Caithness & Sutherland, Isle of Arran, Islay, Jura and Colonsay, Mull, Iona, Coll & Tiree, Skye and Lochalsh, Shetland, Orkney and Western Isles pages have made the change, as well as the site main page and many of the index pages that help visitors find their way around the site.
