Linlithgow Palace was the royal palace of the Stewart kings, standing on a hill beside St Michael's Church above Linlithgow Loch in West Lothian. The birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots, it served as a retreat between Edinburgh and Stirling castles, and its surviving details include carved stonework and Queen Margaret's Bower, with views over the peel and loch.
Historic Environment Scotland state on this site's own page: "Visitors' dogs are allowed at Linlithgow Palace, but are not permitted in roofed areas." Their site-wide rule adds that dogs must be kept on a lead at all times, must not be left unattended, and that owners must pick up after them. Assistance dogs are permitted everywhere including roofed areas.
