Edinburgh has a vibrant year-round cultural life, museums, art galleries, and historical attractions such as Edinburgh Castle. City excursions include the East Lothian coast and towns like Haddington and North Berwick, and historic towns such as Linlithgow. To the north, the fishing villages of the East Neuk of Fife are very photogenic. With golf heritage, ruined cathedral - and shopping - St Andrews is a ‘must see’. In the west, Scotland’s largest city, Glasgow is a great shopping centre, the city’s pubs, restaurants and clubs adding to its vibrant nightlife. South of Glasgow, the Robert Burns Museum in Alloway, Ayr, gives an insight into the poet’s life. North-east of Glasgow lies Stirling and the Trossachs with its many attractions including Blair Drummond Safari and Adventure Park - a fantastic day out for all ages. Near Falkirk is the Helix, winner of the National Lottery National Treasure Award 2014 and home to The Kelpies, 30m sculptures of horses heads. In the Scottish Borders, ‘textile towns’ such as Galashiels, Selkirk and Hawick have mill shops to discover, while the heritage of the Border abbeys can be explored at Jedburgh Abbey’s visitor centre. This area also has stately homes to visit, including Abbotsford, the home of Sir Walter Scott. Westwards, Galloway towns are always attractive - notably colourful Kirkcudbright, once noted for its artists’ colony, and Castle Douglas. Galloway’s main town is Dumfries, with its Robert Burns connections. The Galloway Forest Park is the largest forest park in the UK, easy to reach from places such as Newton Stewart and New Galloway. 33 For prices and opening times visit welcometoscotland.com on mobile and web Discover this famous castle in a spectacular cliff top setting.

South and Central ScotlandTwo great cities, the coastal delights of Fife, the hills of the Scottish Borders, the moors and forests of Galloway and the resorts of Ayrshire and Arran are all in this area.
Edinburgh has a vibrant year-round cultural life, museums, art galleries, and historical attractions such as Edinburgh Castle. City excursions include the East Lothian coast and towns like Haddington and North Berwick, and historic towns such as Linlithgow. To the north, the fishing villages of the East Neuk of Fife are very photogenic. With golf heritage, ruined cathedral - and shopping - St Andrews is a ‘must see’.In the west, Scotland’s largest city, Glasgow is a great shopping centre, the city’s pubs, restaurants and clubs adding to its vibrant nightlife. South of Glasgow, the Robert Burns Museum in Alloway, Ayr, gives an insight into the poet’s life.
North-east of Glasgow lies Stirling and the Trossachs with its many attractions including Blair Drummond Safari and Adventure Park - a fantastic day out for all ages. Near Falkirk is the Helix, winner of the National Lottery National Treasure Award 2014 and home to The Kelpies, 30m sculptures of horses heads.In the Scottish Borders, ‘textile towns’ such as Galashiels, Selkirk and Hawick have mill shops to discover, while the heritage of the Border abbeys can be explored at Jedburgh Abbey’s visitor centre. This area also has stately homes to visit, including Abbotsford, the home of Sir Walter Scott.Westwards, Galloway towns are always attractive - notably colourful Kirkcudbright, once noted for its artists’ colony, and Castle Douglas. Galloway’s main town is Dumfries, with its Robert Burns connections. The Galloway Forest Park is the largest forest park in the UK, easy to reach from places such as Newton Stewart and New Galloway.
