Palace of Holyroodhouse: Dark History & Epic Abbey Ruins Photo Op
★4.4(10108)
Skip the audio guide and head straight for the North Tower to see where Mary Queen of Scots’ secretary met a grim, bloody end. While the State Apartments serve heavy-handed royal excess, the jagged, roofless Holyrood Abbey ruins provide way better content. Budget 90 minutes total. Arrive before 11am to dodge the tour bus chaos and book tickets online to bypass the entry queue. The grounds look best in the soft morning light anyway.
