Just turn up :agree: (this time with links!)


Get free entry to 48 historic sites across Scotland on Sat 27 - Tues 30 Nov, in celebration of St Andrew's Day. The Free Weekend (http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/index/places/events/freeweekend.htm) features several sites which normally charge an entrance fee e.g. an adult on the door ticket to Edinburgh Castle usually costs £12 and £6.50 for kids, so there are great savings to be had.

For a full list of participating sites, visit the Historic Scotland (http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/index/places/events/freeweekend.htm) site. For some venues you may need to book in advance.
