Visited on a rainy day, Caroline the attendant was very patient with us and told us the history of the Abbey. Was an intriguing explore with every stone telling a story. A few bits were shut but nothing that detracted from the day.

Really interesting and very well presented. There's a nice, big (free) car park (appreciated by us camper van travellers!) and lots of good explanations of how the abbey was in pre-Reformation days. (No entry fee.)

Difficult not to give this place 5 stars as, whilst small, it is so full of history and atmosphere! We spent about an hour here, wandering around the ruins and reflecting on Mary Queen of Scots’ last night in Scotland.

Came across this site by accident and very glad to have done so. Unlike several Heritage Scotland sites we have tried to visit this week, this one is mostly open with just a couple of minor sections closed off. Staff very friendly and helpful and interesting site with plenty of information boards. The historical highlight is the link to Mary Queen of Scots. There is an entry fee but Heritage Scotland/English Heritage/Cadw members get free entry.
