Our day begins with a drive across the Kincardine Bridge where we pay a visit to the village of Culross (pronounced Cooross). Culross is the nearest thing to a 16th century time capsule you will find anywhere in Scotland! It is as though much of the core of the village was simply frozen in time. The village is now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland. Free time to wander around this ‘wee gem’. From here we continue our way across the iconic Forth Road Bridge to the harbour side where we will board a sightseeing cruise for a 90 minute trip on the Forth.
B, DDay 4 Wednesday
Enjoy a relaxing day around the hotel and enjoy free time in historic Stirling with its magnificent castle. The town is full of character standing on a high plug of volcanic rock at the head of the Old Town, the castle is well worth a visit and the attractions include The Great Hall, Chapel Royal, Great Kitchens and the stunning Renaissance Royal Palace. Nearby is the Church of the Holy Rood (Holy Cross) - worth a look if only for the magnificent stained glass.
B, DDay 5 Thursday
Today we take you into Edinburgh where you have the whole day free to explore. There is lots to see and do - The Castle, The Royal Mile, Holyrood Palace, Princes Street with its quality shops & lovely gardens and the old town.
