The palace, birthplace of Mary Queen of Scots, impresses with its grand architecture and picturesque setting beside Linlithgow Loch. Visitors appreciate the extensive ruins, which allow for exploration of various rooms and levels. The Great Hall and the intricate fountain in the courtyard are often highlighted as standout features. The palace's rich history is conveyed through informative displays and audio guides, though some visitors note that more detailed explanations would enhance the experience. The climb to the top of the palace rewards with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, but some visitors caution about the steep, narrow stairs.
