Golf course was wonderfully presented and greens excellent. Although shorter than many courses the variety of holes, hazards and elevation made for a very enjoyable round. The hospitality was first class - friendly and efficient and food delicious. I look forward to returning.

It is a historical church, although rebuilt in some parts. A fabulous church with impressive architecture and stained glass windows.The churchyard is worth a look as well. The cemetery is full of headstones worth taking a look at . Even if you come here primarily for the palace, this church adjoining the palace is very beautiful. Definitely worth visiting for just a few minutes.

7. Almond Valley Heritage Centre
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 582 reviews
A family-friendly museum on a peaceful riverside site with friendly farm animals, working watermill and interactive displays. Explore fields and woodland walks, join in daily demonstrations and activities, and let the kids go wild in playgrounds, pedal carts and trampolines. Take a trip by tractor, ride the narrow-gauge railway, explore the museum, or bounce around in the indoor soft play area. There is lots to see and do at Almond Valley indoors and out.

What a great day! Loved it!! So much to do and see, lots of little things to do, dress up, colour in, picnic, tractor ride, brush the ponies, sand pits with bones, rabbit, ducks with babies, birds, slide, play areas, museum. And all in the rain!! Obviously catered for the Scottish weather when they planned this park out. Will definitely be back!

Nestled in the heart of Torphichen, West Lothian, lies Torphichen Preceptory. Maintained by Historic Scotland the Preceptory is one of two examples to be found in Britain, the other is located in London. The earliest known records of its existence are from 1168. In its current state it consists of the two trnscepts and the tower, though foundations from various other parts, such as the cloisters, still exist. The original church was the only Scottish link to the Preceptory of the Knights Hospitaller of the Order of St John of Jerusalem and today it is manned by members of the Order of St. John.

Linlithgow Palace is now open and we are delighted to welcome you back. Booking in advance is essential. Find out more and book at restarthistory.scot. The magnificent ruin of a great Royal Palace set in its own park and beside Linlithgow Loch. A favoured residence of the Stewart kings and queens from James I (1406-37) onward. Building work commissioned by James I, III, IV, V and VI can be seen. The great hall and chapel are particularly fine. James V (1512) and Mary Queen of Scots (1542) were both born here. Surfaces inside the Palace are mainly stone slabs and small cobbles in the courtyard. The ticket office, shop and courtyard are accessible to visitors with disabilities. More mobile visitors should be able to access the first floor which forms the main part of the property. Access is available to Linlithgow Loch and extensive peel (park).

A key part of Scottish history this beautifully located castle is well worth a proper tour. Although semi-ruined, a huge amount is preserved of this large building, to the point that at times you risk getting lost in it's multi-level labyrith of corridors, stairways, towers and huge rooms. You can always look out onto the lovely courtyard to check where you are though! It is also well worth visiting the church next door and walking down to the lake for impressive views and photographs
