Edinburgh
in Scotland

Edinburgh, or 'Auld Rekkie' as proud Scots affectionately call it, holds a very special place in our hearts. This is an ode to the cobbled streets and old stone buildings of Scotland's capital city. Rich in history, it's fast becoming a place of magnificent gastronomy (even if haggis, neeps and tatties are not on your plate every day)!
