{"product_id":"hidden-scotland-magazine-issue-13","title":"Hidden Scotland Magazine Issue 13 PRE-ORDER","description":"\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePre-order:\u003c\/strong\u003e Issue 13 is with the printers just now. We’ll start posting copies out in about three weeks. Every pre-order comes with a free bookmark and an A5 print of the front cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eThis is the thirteenth issue of Hidden Scotland Magazine. An unlucky number? Not a bit of it. We’ve had the good fortune to be able to gather a truly wonderful selection of stories, features and interviews into the following 150-plus pages, crisscrossing the national map and packing in plenty of warming inspiration for the colder months ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eAutumn and winter often translate as cosy and comfortable. Bookworms can lose themselves in our round-up of 16 of the best independent bookshops in the country, while writer Emma Gibbs extols the virtues of staying put by highlighting places where you’ll be content not to stray too far from the front door of your accommodation. On a similar seasonal theme, Rosie Steer – author of \u003ci\u003eGloaming: Folklore, Recipes and Crafts to Spark Glimmers of Joy in the Darker Months\u003c\/i\u003e – focuses on the joys of embracing the darkness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eBut this time of year, of course, is also one for planning wider exploration. We share insider tips on visiting Angus and the Isle of Mull, recount a family adventure to a unique Perthshire farm, share some of the secrets of remote Rannoch and – through the words and photographs of wildlife film-maker Gordon Buchanan – celebrate the splendour of Glencoe’s hulking Buachaille Etive Mòr.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eElsewhere, among much else, we meet an inspirational range of artists and creatives, interview the founder of a remarkable net-zero distillery and shine a light on the handcrafted wares of East End Press, as well as taking a closer look at Scottish elopements through the years. There’s also a special feature on the extraordinary work and commitment of Scotland’s mountain rescue volunteers, who were called on more than 1,200 times in 2025 alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eAnd, to take a tiny moment to blow our own bugle, there’s one further reason why this issue is an auspicious one. We’re absolutely delighted to announce that at the Scottish Design Awards in June 2026, Hidden Scotland Magazine was awarded gold in the Print Design category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eWe hope the following pages bring you joy and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%;\"\u003eHappy reading, and enjoy the journey. \u003ci\u003eSlàinte mhath\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hidden Scotland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54873379307903,"sku":"MAG Issue13","price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0794\/8301\/1382\/files\/01-cover-bracken_5587f698-7739-4a94-beb0-98b84df5f471.jpg?v=1789162350","url":"https:\/\/shop.hiddenscotland.com\/products\/hidden-scotland-magazine-issue-13","provider":"Hidden Scotland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
