The palace visit page has other ticket options. A family ticket or pass needs its own current rules. Do not assume a total from this table covers all the people in your party.
Members have a free-entry booking route. Explorer Pass holders have another route. Check the proof and booking steps that apply. A pass may be useful for several visits, but not every visitor needs one.
Hours and the chosen slot
The listed April to September hours are 9.30am to 5pm daily. October to March hours are 10am to 4pm daily. Last entry is 45 minutes before closing. Closures are listed for 25 and 26 December and 1 and 2 January.
Read the notice for the exact day before you travel. A season table can be right while a single day changes. Leave room for the walk from the station or a parking delay. A train arrival is not arrival at the gate.
Use train advice or parking choices before choosing a tight slot. Neither a train ticket nor an entry ticket reserves a parking bay.
Discounts and access
The page lists a 25% car-free discount on standard entry. It uses the online code GOOD25 and needs the stated arrival evidence. Check the terms before paying. The offer does not pay for your train or bus.
The access page says up to two carers can enter free with a disabled visitor per transaction. It says proof of disability is not required. Read the full current rules for that ticket choice.
The courtyard has flagstones and cobbles. Upper rooms have historic stairs. The team listed the North Range, King’s Bed Chamber and Court Kitchen as closed on the review date. A ticket does not mean every room is open.
Entry and a tour are different choices
A tour can arrange transport but leave palace entry as an extra. A named stop may mean a view outside. Read the actual inclusion list and time at the stop. A photo of a room is not proof that you will enter it.
Weigh tour choices if arranged travel helps. For entry alone, book through the linked palace source. That link is an editorial source, not a tracked offer.
Make the ticket fit the day
Choose Linlithgow Palace tickets once the date, visitor type and arrival are clear. Leave a flexible extra for the loch. Entry, transport and events need the right booking for each part.
FAQ
Does the car-free discount apply to walk-up tickets?
The GOOD25 offer described by the attraction requires an online booking and proof of eligible car-free travel. Check the current terms before buying.
