About West Lothian

If you haven't already experienced for yourself the warm West Lothian welcome, start planning a visit today. Just don't expect to cram everything into one day. History comes alive during visits to Cairnpapple, a prehistoric burial ground, and Linlithgow Palace, birthplace of Mary, Queen of Scots. Nature is just waiting to be explored at Polkemmet Country Park and West Lothian's many other wildernesses. You can even try your hand at horse riding, motor racing, skateboarding, fishing and golf, without ever leaving the area. With so many attractions and activities on offer, West Lothian is a destination you'll want to return to again and again.
