Want to be inspired? Edinburgh's offer to visitors is almost overwhelming so you need to make sure you set aside a fair bit of time to build your itinerary! These campsites near Edinburgh provide great bases from which to experience the pulse of this fascinating city, offering relaxation in the Lothians countryside after the excitement of days (and nights!) on the tiles. If you're into shopping you are going to have to be VERY self disciplined! Designer devotees will love the range of outlets on offer across the city; head to historic Grassmarket for vintage treasures; for those looking for a Scottish Souvenir, go wild on the Royal Mile. After your legs have been well and truly shopped-off, you can head back to one of these Edinburgh campsites and plan your retail campaign for the following day! Of course one of Edinburgh's main draws is the cultural activity that runs through its arteries; performance is the life-blood of this city and the festivals come thick and fast with the centrepiece being the Edinburgh International Festival, founded in 1947, with the Edinburgh Festival Fringe running alongside. Comedy, drama, music and dance, with many free fringe festival events: immersing yourself in the fervour of this world-famous celebration is an unforgettable experience.
