Tours cost £10/£8 Concession
Family (1 adult & up to 3 children)
It is 100 years since Mrs Margaret Reid, the last private owner of Lauriston, gifted the castle to the nation. Today she and her husband Mr William Reid have returned and are delighted to discover that everything is just as it was before they passed away. The spirits of others who have lived in or been connected to the castle throughout its history have also returned, including Mrs Reid’s friend the celebrated composer, Marguerite Marigold.
Join us as for an anniversary tour of the castle alongside these Visitors from the Past!
Edinburgh Living History are our multi award- winning team, who interpret the history of the castle in a variety of entertaining ways in Edwardian costume - bringing alive the history of the house. Each performance is carefully devised by Edinburgh Living History to be as historically accurate as possible and include a touch of drama and a soupcon of humour. You will walk through the Castle on a special tour watching the performance unfold. Why not make a day of it at Lauriston and have some lunch at Mimi’s café on site.
