World Heritage-listed Edinburgh combines ancient and modern in a uniquely Scottish atmosphere.
Head to Grassmarket and Miss Katie Cupcakefor plenty of shopping. Get outdoors at The Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Dalhousie Castle Falconry. There's much more to do: explore the historical opulence of Edinburgh Castle, get to know the fascinating history of The Royal Mile, take in the exciting artwork at Urbane Art Gallery, and browse the range of quality goods at Jenners Edinburgh.
