Scone Palace
Scone, about 10 minutes' drive north of Perth
Address: Scone Palace, Perth PH2 6BD- Trip
- Mid-price
- Best in Spring, Summer, Autumn
- Culture
- Out of town
Tour the palace, stand on Moot Hill where Scottish kings were crowned, and try to find the middle of the star-shaped beech maze.
Why it's a good date: You get history and gardens in one trip, and the maze tends to get competitive. The palace is open spring to autumn, so plan it for the warmer months.
