Win a luxury overnight stay in Edinburgh

Scotland’s Winter Festivals - a celebration of Scottish music, arts, food and drink and entertainment - kicks off with St Andrew’s Day, runs through Christmas and Hogmanay, and culminates in Burns Night 2013. We're giving one lucky reader and a guest the chance to enjoy a luxurious style with first class return train travel to Edinburgh courtesy of East Coast and an overnight stay at the stunning Malmaison in Edinburgh.

Sample what’s on offer for yourself - from breathtaking skylines and bustling festivals to lively pubs and Michelin star restaurants, Edinburgh has something for everyone and is a bucket-list must see for every traveler.

Culture vultures can explore the city’s ancient streets, intricate spires and grand architecture before visiting the impressive National Museum of Scotland. Shopaholics can have their pick of both Multrees Walk’s high-end residents, such as Harvey Nichols, Louis Vuitton and Mulberry, and the quirky independent local shops of the West End Village.

If it’s food and drink you are after, the city caters for every palate and budget. Purse-friendly favourites include Room in the Town in Stockbridge and the world-renowned Michelin mile on The Shore - home to award-winning chefs including Tom Kitchin, whose restaurant was recently voted the best in Scotland.

The lucky winner will enjoy an overnight stay at luxury boutique hotel Malmaison Edinburgh – as the very first Malmaison hotel, it is the mother of all Mals. Just a short taxi ride from Waverley Station and a race across the cobbles of Leith, Edinburgh Malmaison overlooks the Port of Leith. The hotel’s brasserie offers a beautiful blend of Scottish favourites and British classics, while the bar dazzles with an impressive array of cocktails. The slinky rooms boast super-sized comfy beds, roll-top baths and oceanic views for the ultimate relaxation. After a good night’s sleep, guests will also be treated to a full Scottish breakfast for the perfect start to the day.

First Class train travel is courtesy of East Coast. Its timetable provides Scottish passengers with more seats, more services and faster journey times on many services to destinations including Newcastle, York and London King’s Cross.

To celebrate this year, attractions throughout Scotland will welcome visitors and locals alike with special entry offers, giving everyone from young revelers to families an opportunity to celebrate everything that’s great about Scotland this winter.
