Paint the beautiful grounds of Lauriston Castle with ink and watercolours. This stunning location combines nature with architecture and enjoys fantastic views over the Forth to Fife. On this 3 hour sketching tour, Mark (known locally as EdinburghSketcher) will guide you around the castle grounds, picking out details that will help describe the techniques he has picked up over a decade of sketching around the city. Each class will touch on mark making, perspectives, depth and composition, as you go from 5 minute exercises to relax the hand and work on composition, to 30 minute detailed vistas. Mark’s sketching tours are perfect for all levels, from beginners to those who would like to learn more about his unique speed-sketching style, or to practice sketching with ink and watercolour. A mount to house your finished sketches plus all materials needed on the day are included. This is a walking and sketching tour so come dressed for the Scottish weather! If you have any questions you can email Mark at contact@edinburghsketcher.com All materials are included in the price. Prepare for all weathers, this is an outdoor walking and sketching tour so please do check the forecast before you leave and dress appropriately. I will persevere if there is a little light rain but in the event of extreme weather we have space indoors where I will run the workshop using items from the beach and photographs of the area. The minimum age is 8 years old, and anyone aged 8-15 needs to be accompanied by a ticket holding adult.

Best Things to Do

肥豬媽咪

There are quite a lot of people who have to queue up at the castle ticket gate. Buy the ticket for 5 minutes directly at Trip.com and go in directly. It is too convenient. The castle scenery is very good, you can go shopping slowly, and you can rent a translation headset after you go in. If you need it, the text introduction is actually written in detail.

Palace of Holyroodhouse

Holyrood Palace is worth a visit. If time permits, you must go to see Queen Mary&#39;s palace in Scotland. It is still the place where the royal family holds garden parties in summer. You can see Arthur&#39;s Seat from a distance. The order of visiting the palace is very reasonable. With the introduction in the headset, you can immerse yourself in the heavy atmosphere of history! !

Surrounded by ancient British architecture, with the haunting sound of bagpipes echoing along Princes Street and the taste of delicious Scottish cuisine &mdash; Edinburgh&rsquo;s Old Town is truly a place worth exploring.

It is the most romantic sunset place. I have been here, it was cold but beautiful! I will not go into details about the many celebrity check-in places.
But my only deepest experience was the lyrics,
&quot;The castle keeps secrets for love, and I keep memories for you&quot;
I didn&#39;t think this song was romantic before, until I climbed to the top of Carlton Mountain⛰️It was really speechless and beautiful!!
I really like this light blue gentle dusk~~Thanks to the little afterglow near sunset that day, I saw the light blue and light orange sky line in the distance, which was really extremely romantic~~Continuously touched me✨💕🌹Recommend this extremely romantic place, must go?

Medieval dusk🌆, the only one in the world❤️
