Take a paddle at the seaside villages of the East Neuk and Falkland Palace, or follow
in the footsteps of William Wallace in Stirling.
On a sunny day the beaches at Tyningham (to the east of the city) or the seaside
villages of the East Neuk of Fife and nearby Falkland Palace make a great
escape. Just an hour away from Edinburgh is the city of Stirling. Scene of two
historic Scottish victories over England, it is widely known as the gateway to the
highlands. If Holy Grail-hunting is more your bag, try visiting Rosslyn Chapel.
The ancient church has been puzzling theologians for years. Is it merely coincidence
that Dolly the sheep, the first clone in the world, was born in the nearby town?
