East Lothian is the coastal county to the direct east of Edinburgh, it is mildly hilly with a stunning cliff-strewn coast and a good scattering of impressive Castles. The main towns are North Berwick, Dunbar and Haddington with mostly rural landscape slowly becoming more urban as you approach the Scottish Capital.

Two Castles in particular stand out, the solid Dirleton Castle and standing on the rugged coast is Tantallon Castle, overlooking the huge bulk of the Bass Rock which itself has a Castle on it.
