Planning to do sightseeing, or more of a boozy kind of stay? Cairnpapple Hill and the war memorial might be worth a visit if you're doing the sightseeing thing. You might want to venture out to Glasgow or Edinburgh, both easy to get to from Bathgate.
No doubt there will be women, not sure if they're all up for what you have in mind x |

There is always the Balbardie Park of Peace Football and Recreation Ground in Bathgate. I'm not sure if there are any events planned but it might be worth checking the local Library notice board if the library is open. Or just turn up and see. Whitburn is a few miles away but worth visiting for a few minutes to see the Owl Sanctuary (an Alan Partridge favourite) at Polkemmet Country Park. Further afield Armadale offers the XCite Swimming Pool across the road from the Library and Community Centre.
As already pointed out Cairnpapple Hill is a really interesting Neolithic Henge site with some Bronze Age Burials inserted into the bank. Fine views from there across West Lothian. There is also the War Memorial at the bottom of Craigmailing Hill (so you don't have to climb it). Just a couple of miles North... Linlithgow is famous for its ancient palace and is very good for a rumble round its charity shops. Blackridge, Longridge, Addiewell, Fauldhouse and Harthill are a series of quaint local villages which are also worth a visit.
That lot should fill up one of your days until about teat-time. |
