Gorgeous Edinburgh boasts a big city attitude with a relatively compact and walkable heart. Breaks to Edinburgh provide a unique insight into the history of Scotland with the Medieval Old Town atop a hill and leading down to the elegant Georgian New Town. Walk the Royal Mile between St Giles’ Cathedral and the Palace of Holyroodhouse, see the Scottish Parliament buildings and discover the history of Scotland’s most famous export at the Scotch Whisky Experience. Stretch your legs with a hike up to Arthur’s Seat, overlooking the city and surrounding countryside, before indulging with some local hospitality at one of the city’s many bars and restaurants. Breaks to Edinburgh offer plenty to entertain the first time visitor and returning guests alike.
