Print workshop with a gallery and shop. No cafe unfortunately, but if you like printed artworks and fancy picking up a hand-made print, this will likely tick your boxes. Artisan Roast round the corner if you require a coffee!

Parks & Nature
If you can muster the energy, climb to the top of Arthur's Seat and get the best view of Edinburgh going. If you don't have the time, a walk along the Salisbury Crags will give you just as stunning a view. It's like the countryside in the city.

Cycle, run, wander, picnic, play tennis/football/frisbee, walk the dog, sit and read. You will see people use the Meadows for all of these and more. Nice for some quiet downtime, you'll forget you're in Scotland's capital!
