Film set of Outlander (series)

Worth the small detour from the main route to visit this castle. Great views across the Forth and to the bridges.

Well worth a visit.

Parking is available near the Palace. The idyllic town offers enough opportunities for a stop after the visit.

The builder of Midhope Castle, which was built in the late 16th century, is Alexander Drummond of Midhope of the Drummond clan. It later passed to the Earls of Linlithgow of the Livingstone Clan. Two additions on the east side were added at an unspecified date in the 17th century. Midhope Castle was the location of Lallybroch's Outlander television series based on the books of Diana Gabaldon's Highland saga. (Wikipedia)

Linlithgow Palace lies roofless and ruined but you can see how it was once an amazing royal palace. Work began to build the palace in 1424 when James 1st ordered a pleasure palace to replace the fire damaged older residence. The Royals used it as a rest stop and nursery as they travelled between Edinburgh and Stirling. It didn't last long though once the royals moved to London in 1603 it fell into disrepair and was finished by a huge fire in 1746. Today the site is managed by Historic Scotland. You can visit some of the castle and have a look around. The run around the loch gives great views from all angles.

Wild camped here on the grounds after hours......never seen in castle as closed but looked amazing.

I can't say how things are now, but in the summer of 2006 it was more or less a ruin that was being worked on. Still it was worth seeing.
