What is at the other end
Rosslyn Chapel is a small fifteenth-century church carved inside almost beyond belief — every surface worked, including the Apprentice Pillar. It sits in a village just south of the city, with the Pentland Hills rising behind it.
Who travels this route
Guests with a few hours between landing and hotel check-in.
What to know before you book
Thirty minutes from the terminal makes this one of the best uses of an early-arrival gap. Photography inside the chapel is restricted.
