Picture this: while wandering aimlessly down the Royal Mile you are accosted by a man in 16th century period dress pointing you towards his comedy on Sir Walter Raleigh at the underbelly, on the way you are given a leaflet to go to a silent movie atop Carlton Hill, live, and complete with a 22 peace orchestra. You couldn’t make it up. News - Destiny Group News Mon, 01 Mar 2010 15:44:49 +0100 http://www.destinyscotland.com/content/view/34/5/ How Scotland’s Capital continues to Thrive! The City of Edinburgh is increasingly well known for being both a financial institution and a global tourism hotspot. These industries have continued to see growth despite the ‘credit crunch’. Edinburgh continues to be considered a key centre for financial growth and has proven to be an ideal city for a business to develop, both on the high street, with up and coming chains such as Urban Outfitters opening up alongside old favourites like Primark, and in the business sector - the headquarters of Tesco Personal Finance, attracted to the Nation’s Capital, recently relocated to Haymarket, creating two hundred jobs.

You want your accommodation as close as possible to the venues and you want it for as cheap as possible. With the current financial condition of the country we understand the latter is going to be even more important to our clients this year so we have come up with some tips to show you how to get the cheapest accommodation possible. Firstly, we’ll take a quick look at why it is so expensive, which might help us find ways to bring the cost down.

You’d be wrong though. The Edinburgh Stop of the International Taste Festival (heralded as the ‘World’s Greatest Restaurant Festival’) pays homage to Scotland’s Thriving Culinary Culture as May draws to a close (final dates TBC).
