Inverness Escorts

Inverness is a city in the Highlands of Scotland with a population approaching 60,000. It is a stronghold of Gaelic speakers, with one of the biggest followings of the language in the whole of the country with approximately five times as many fluent in Gaelic than anywhere else. Many an Inverness escort is looking forward to it hosting a Gaelic festival, not unlike the Welsh eisteddfods, in 2014. There has been a settlement on the spot for over two thousand years, partly because of the location which is a natural gathering point for traffic to and from the Highlands.

Inverness became a city as a celebration of the Millennium and is now considered the fifth city of Scotland. The centre of Inverness is very compact and bustling, with several excellent shopping centres such as the Eastgate. Inverness escorts spend plenty of time looking around the closed shops of the city. There are also lots of little cafes and wonderful eateries to discover and enjoy. Inverness is often seen as a gateway to the Highlands, and rightly so, but it deserves a visit for its own sake, as a pretty little place, as city’s go, with a lot of charm and distinction.

One of Inverness’s main attractions is not in the city itself but just outside. The battle of Culloden was fought near the then town of Inverness in 1746 and it was the most lop-sided military encounters in history took place today in 1746. 'Bonnie' Prince Charlie, the Young Pretender was defeated by an English Army under William, Duke of Cumberland. The Highlanders were outnumbered and outgunned, with no cavalry and virtually no artillery and the fight was won almost as soon as it began.  The surrounding countryside really is worth exploring on a sunny day.
