Join us for a Guided Tour of this historic townhouse in the heart of Edinburgh's New Town. Designed in 1791 by Robert Adam, Scotland’s foremost architect of the time. Beautifully restored by the National Trust for Scotland in 1975.
As a home to the wealthy, the building has witnessed some of the biggest political and social upheavals in history, as well as war and disease.
Step back in time to the elegance and refinement of late 18th Edinburgh. Discover the lives of those who lived in this family home. Find out about the life and work of the servants.
