Steeped in history, beautiful surroundings and good food. This was once the home of David Rizzio, secretary to Mary Queen of Scots. As you arrive you will notice the majestic trees along the driveway. Rizzio planted one for his Queen and she in turn planted five in response. The trees are still standing.

Great beach but the other sights and landmarks to be found there are Seton Collegiate, Gosford House and Winton Castle. Longniddry is also great for golf fanatics too.

Referred to as the Honest Toun. Musselburgh is a historic town in East Lothian well known for its golf and racecourse. Home to Luca’s icecream (my absolute favourite). A pretty town to visit and famous for its fishing community. If you like fish you can buy the best and freshest fish possible from the fish monger’s on the Quay.
