4/ 5

It was a very small museum containing pieces of life from Edinburgh Authors such as Robert Louis Stevenson and Robert Burns. It's a really small museum so one cannot carry a huge luggage inside but then it's a worthy visit for every book worm. Though not many exact writing materials were displayed it was insightful to know about the lives of those famous writers through the things they possessed.

Just not for me. I didn't know what to expect but can't say I'm surprised. A range of random artefacts from the three authors on display along with some historical insights and information. If you like any of the authors then maybe you will get more out of it than I did. I did like the building for it's architecture
