Congratulations! You have chosen a really great destination for your holidays!
You can find B&Bs not only in almost every little village but also in very remote regions. There it´s particularly the farmhouses who are offering inexpensive but excellent accommodation. Just look for "B&B" signs on the road and I guarantee you will have success. Before I bought 20 acres of Scotland I had visited this charming country many times and there was only one time when I had to drive 3 hours to find a free room. It was on the first Saturday in September and the evening after the famous Braemar Gathering...
Besides this I really NEVER had any problems but if you travel in July or August I nevertheless give you the good advice to look for a B&B in time (from 3 or 4 pm).
If you really cannot find a B&B you don´t have to worry. There are enough other accommodations like the more expensive hotels, a lot of cottages and youth hostels and the numerous well-equipped camping places. Moreover the 141 tourist offices throughout Scotland will certainly try to find you some suitable accommodation.
In the main season I think it would be better to stay two or three nights in a B&B making day trips from there. There are so many things to do and to see that you could visit marvelous castles and palaces or unforgettable viewpoints even on foot! If you prefer to explore a region and discover its timeless beauty this is the best you can do.
When I was in Scotland for the first time in 1986, the common price for a clean B&B was £9 to £12 per person and this had increased to £18 to £22 during my last visit in 2003. Most of the B&Bs are within these limits. It really doesn´t pay to go on looking for a cheaper one.
Hotels are, of course, much more expensive. In rural regions and little towns and villages they are £40 to £65. In the big cities the price depends on the stars a hotel has. We even once paid £108, so take care!
