Local Linlithgow Events
Linlithgow is a small town with a big community. Book local accommodation and join this community at one of the town's annual events. In July and August, Linlithgow Palace plays host to Scotch Hopis - a fun event where locals show off their energetic Scottish dancing skills.
At the same location in August is Party@the palace. Two days full of music and fun with something for the whole family. Classic car enthusiasts can admire sporting motors in late summer while lovers of folk music can listen to local bands at the Linlithgow Folk Festival in September.
Or, book holiday accommodation in the winter and let the kids have fun at the Children's Advent Fayre.
Attractions for All Ages
A highlight of any trip out from your holiday cottage is Linlithgow Palace. Now an atmospheric ruin sitting on the edge of the loch, this 15th-century palace was the birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots. The kids can run wild in the ruins before you pop into Linlithgow Museum to find out about the town's history.
Take a boat trip from the Linlithgow Canal Centre while Beecraigs Country Park has woodland walks and playground adventures.
If you're an adrenaline junkie, try white-water rafting and canoeing at Low Point outdoor centre. At the end of a busy day, you'll be ready to return to your accommodation in a cosy holiday cottage.
