Willow Wood Park nestles itself within picturesque and tranquil Lothian countryside in Scotland and yet, is situated close to the M8 motorway, which can transport you quickly to the delights of Edinburgh, just 18 miles away. One day you could be walking, fishing or playing golf in beautiful, unspoilt, natural surroundings. The next, you could be discovering the rich diversity of cultural and historic attractions in Scotland’s capital, or indulging in a little retail therapy on Princes Street.

West Lothian has a wide range of leisure pursuits on offer for anyone in search of adventure or relaxation. For the active, there are dozens of golf courses in the area plus sailing at the Low Port Centre. This is also excellent walking territory, be it gentle saunters in the many green spaces or something more taxing, such as the Bathgate Hills where the views are worth the hike, and the Pentland Hills which offer more than 100km of trails, which are signposted, to explore.

The area’s heritage is rich and diverse, and well worth exploring. In just a day you can take in historic attractions – prehistoric burial sites, palace ruins, castles and stately homes that span hundreds, even thousands, of years.
