Day Out Ideas For Tomorrow

[Smurf]

Non kid trip somewhere not too far a drive from Edinburgh. Interesting scenery with maybe some wildlife to look at. Maybe close to a wee town with interesting shops to look at. Maybe with decent places for a nice lunch? Any ideas or suggestions? Cheers

Scone Palace - nice gardens and walking, adventure playground, picnic areas; never been inside the palace itself but that's there too obviously.

Anstruther for the sea and a chippy.

Bit further afield (about 90 mins to 2 hrs drive) and maybe best done as an overnighter; Lindisfarne is great, especially as the tide comes in and makes it an Island - Island's have a great atmosphere. Nice boozers and good pub grub as I remember.

I've been there and back in a day loads of times , Bamburgh is very nice too couple of great places for a bar lunch too . Best check the tide times if you're intending going across , no point arriving when the tide is in

Loving the ideas M. Think Anstruther is the one for tomorrow. Lindisfarne sounds great too and will definitely plan for that soon.

Culross is not too far and a pleasant place to spend a day off. If you're thinking further afield Craster in Northumberland ticks all the boxes you asked about - great walk from the harbour to the castle along the coast and some fine wee pubs, bistros and cafes
