Walk out to the site of Robert the Bruce's 1314 victory to see his statue on horseback and the circular Rotunda memorial.
Why it's a good date: It costs nothing, and you can walk the open ground where the famous battle was fought. The visitor centre is closed for a revamp, but the grounds, statue and Rotunda stay open, so bring a picnic on a dry day.
