The Easter holidays are almost upon us, and with the weather set to improve, here are some ideas on family day’s out in Edinburgh and the Lothians.
. National Museum of Scotland
The ultimate family day out. From history, to the natural world, to space and technology - the museum has it all. And it's free entry and has great accessibility. Unbeatable! Photo: Anadolu Agency
. Lauriston Castle
This beautiful place comes alive in the Spring - and many family friendly activities are being put on for the Easter holidays. Photo: Lauriston Castle
5. East Links Family Park
East Links Family Park has one of the most picturesque settings out of any on this list. The park itself can be found just before West Barns and is surrounded by John Muir County Park, the woodland and beaches free to race around in. Photo: Contributed
6. Edinburgh Zoo
An absolute classic - but a list of fun, family activities wouldn't be complete without Edinburgh Zoo. Photo: Serge Cornu
7. Foxlake Adventures
If you're looking for something a bit higher in adrenaline - then this is definitely the place for you. Water sports a plenty here, with their new Aqua Park set to open in June. Photo: Image: Contributed
