Old Town Edinburgh

There is a lovely walled garden on Corstorphine Hill which almost no one knows about it. the garden is even reputed to have held a closely guarded whisky secret. It was given to the people of Edinburgh by the family who owned the adjacent Victorian mansion house, which happened to be the Drambuie family. The garden is said to contain some interesting and exotic botanicals, which are believed to be some of the secret ingredients for the famous liqueur.

Visiting the Royal Britannia after hours is a special experience- we toured the ship and had tea.

Extraordinary private visit to Broomhall House was amazing!
The principal seat of the Earls of Elgin and Kincardine, Broomhall House and its surrounding estate has been looked after by 13 successive generations of the Bruce family, lineal descendants of King Robert the Bruce. The Earl of Elgin was famous for bringing the Elgin Marbles to Great Britain. Recently opened for private events, Broomhall House is a must see.
