About the property
Step back in time to bustling and turbulent 17th century Edinburgh.

In July and August Gladstone’s Land has extended opening hours until 6.30, with last admission at 6. On Saturdays during July and August, from 12.30-5, visitors can get a flavour of 17th century life with the guides in costume in the display rooms.
