Visit romantic Traquair where Alexander I signed a charter over 800 years ago and where the 'modern wings' were completed in 1680. Once a pleasure ground for Scottish kings in times of peace, then a refuge for Catholic priests in times of terror, the Stuarts of Traquair supported Mary, Queen of Scots and the Jacobite cause without counting the cost. Imprisoned, fined and isolated for their beliefs, their home, untouched by time, reflects the tranquillity of their family life. Enjoy the unique atmosphere and history. See the secret stairs, spooky cellars, books, embroideries and letters from former times. Visit the ancient brewery and inhale the delicious aroma, then sample the potent liquor in the brewery museum. Browse through the gift shop and then enjoy a relaxed lunch in the Old Walled Garden. Finally, search for the centre of the maze, explore the enchanted woods and look out for the Grey Lady... a truly magical day out for all the family..
