Edinburgh Days Out - Jupiter Artland

Each summer a private estate just a few miles from Edinburgh's city centre opens its gates to the world. The grounds of the house have been laid out as gallery spaces, with sculptures from a wide range of contemporary artists dotted around the lawns, woodlands, and even inside some of the buildings themselves.

It's a fantastic place to go an engage with work by artists like Anish Kapoor, Anthony Gormley and Charles Jencks, with large and small scale works to amuse, entertain and provoke.

​There's also a cafe for great quality food to help keep your strength up as you stroll the grounds.

Jupiter Artland can be accessed by public transport from Edinburgh city centre, or just a twenty minute drive by car. Open May to September.
