Scenic beach with views of Bass Rock & Tantallon Castle, as well as forest walking trails.Well worth the entry fee and although some other people are complaining about the dirt road I say let’s not pour tarmac and concrete everywhere for our convenience and let’s just enjoy this quiet, hidden gem of a lovely beach in it’s natural existence.

My favourite of all the Scottish Galleries. But then I am a modern art fan. There are two galleries here No 1 and No 2 literally opposite each other across a road you could easily spend a full day in each of them. Located in Edinburgh’s West End there is a gallery link bus from the national gallery on Princes Street( £1 charge each way). From the Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore sculpture in the garden setting to the Lichtenstein in the gallery this setting keeps on giving. Inspired curation provides a host of specialist exhibitions throughout the year. Currently a Paula Rego exhibition (spring 2020). You cant see everything on a short trip to Edinburgh but if you love art this is a must. Great cafe which is just as well as a bit of a walk to alternatives.
