    All the main supermarket chains have reasonable "Free From" sections. If your hotel does not have gluten free bread you can get your own. Genius bread is one of the better brands. Nairns make a gluten free brand of oatcake.There is no shortage of health food stores. 1% of the population are coeliac. Food labelling is reasonably strict and wheat/gluten are usually indicated as allergens as well in the ingredients.
    In Kirkwall I found a fish and chip shop that offers gluten free options and many cafes, pubs and restaurants across the UK will often have options on the menu or the chef will sort you out.
    Draft cider is a suitable alternative to beer.
    I personally have a holiday relaxation rule, especially when I go for a nice meal and my problem is eating too much.

    PS The gluten free produce in Ireland is very good

    Have you looked at http://glutenfreetraveller.com/tag/scotland/ ? You may have found this already, as it came up straight away on a google search. I have spent time in various of the places you mentioned, so am sure you will have a great time. (I don't have a gluten problem, though.) I love the area around Pitlochry - my aunt used to live by Loch Tummel, so spent many holidays up there.
