  • Spectacular Jousting Linlithgow

Welcome to Linlithgow

If you’re ready to explore Linlithgow, you’ve come to the right place. Whether you’re a die-hard Outlander fan, love history and walking trails, or just fancy some shopping and a bite to eat, everything you need is right here on Linlithgow.co.uk

We think you’ll agree that Linlithgow makes for a wonderful day, or night, out. It’s also the perfect base for a complete central Scottish holiday. There’s plenty of adventure to be had in Linlithgow, and we’re perfectly located to explore iconic Scottish attractions nearby – all served by a railway station in the heart of the town.

It is most famous for its profound association with Scottish royalty. There’s far more to the town than Mary Queen of Scots, but her birthplace is a great place to start.

Unwind in nature with a gentle walk around the Loch and The Peel. Few town centres are blessed with idyllic nature at such close quarters. Meet the swans and ducks, have a seat at the Peel, take some photographs, and you’ll forget whatever ailed you.
