I love to walk up Arthur’s Seat for the most amazing views of our city and then stroll beyond to the delightful village of Duddingston and pop into the ancient Sheep Heid Inn with its ultra-characterful nooks and crannies and delightful open air courtyard – it dates from 1360 and serves a great array of really tasty food!

Arts & Culture
he People's Story gives an unique insight in to Edinburgh's working class people from the 18th century to the late 20th century. The displays include tableaux, original objects, images and personal stories to reveal their fascinating history of the city.
The collection focuses on the history, culture, crafts and trades, and the people of Edinburgh but also as a place to explore more contemporary issues, events and opinions.
