Sightseeing

Superb views from the battlefield and whatever the weather it is atmospheric as you take in the views and ponder on the events of 1746 . An excellent 360 degree film in the visitor centre where you find yourself in the midst of the battle which impacted profoundly on the history of Scotland. Lovely gift shop too.
