Rosslyn Chapel is well known but please visit the castle as well! The battle of Rosslyn is a fascinating piece of Scottish history which is so often overlooked! More

The most unique place in Scotland - you must see the Apprentice Pillar - it is stunning. Forget all the hype stirred up by the Da Vinci Code. The chapel has been here for undreds of years and is mysterious enough inside. More
