Tips from locals
Well organised free events as well as the paid tours. Lovely little cafe and within walking distance of the property
Museum which tells you about the history of the area of Dalkeith. The coal mines which brought revenue to the area & what it entailed, a very interesting morning or afternoon out for the whole family!
Scotland relied heavily on the mining industry. This excellent museum lets you travel into a mine shaft to see the sights and conditions endured by the workers. Also has a cafe and a soft play for small children.
