Scotland and West Lothian has so much to offer so why not explore a little further afield?
From historic sites such as Linlithgow Palace (birth place of Mary, Queen of Scots) and St Michael’s Parish Church next to beautiful Linlithgow Loch or continue on to see historic Blackness Castle which sits on the shoreline of the Firth of Forth to outdoor activities such as walks and cycling trips in Beecraigs Country Park (ideal for a family day out) there’s plenty to do so it’s worth considering extending your stay to enjoy it all!
