Ayr

Ayr is a town situated on the southwest coast of Scotland. It is the historic county town of Ayrshire and the name Ayr can be traced back to a pre-Celtic word meaning "watercourse" or "strong river" as the town is situated on the River Ayr. A medieval market town and a well known port, it is also the birthplace in the suburb of Alloway of the Scottish poet Robert Burns.

Lanark

Lanark is a small town rich in history located in the county of Lanarkshire in Scotland’s more populous Central Belt. It’s been a market town since medieval times when King David I of Scotland made it a Royal Burgh in 1140, thereby encouraging trade. Legend has it that William Wallace married a lass from Lanark, Marion Braidfute, and that he began his campaign for Scottish Independence in there in 1297.

Edinburgh

Edinburgh is Scotland's capital and has been since the 15th century. It is a compact city that boasts a medieval Old Town and an elegant Georgian New Town, built over 200 years ago. The historic Palace of Holyroodhouse is the official residence of the monarchs in Scotland. Rising above the the city is Edinburgh Castle, home to Scotland’s crown jewels and the Stone of Destiny, used in the coronation of Scottish rulers.
