That the Parliament acknowledges that the historic Queen’s View in Perthshire is listed as being the "most beautiful place" in the UK; notes that the list was compiled by Big 7 Travel; understands that global travel website, Big 7 Travel, wrote, ‘"if it’s good enough for royalty, then it’s good enough for anyone!" and that "this easily accessible and expansive view over Loch Tummel, Schiehallion mountain and the Perthshire Highlands was originally named after Queen Isabella, Robert the Bruce’s wife, in the 14th century, and has remained largely unspoiled since then"; notes that the website also praised its "breathtaking view" describing its "blue loch, snow-capped mountains," and said that it is "the very best of what the UK itself has to offer", and wishes the area of the Queen’s View continued popularity.
