Fun/leftfield thing to do in Edinburgh

I'd like to take some family to do something in or near Edinburgh. They are arty and we all like doing odd/funky things. Eg Jupiter Artland (including pool).

Any ideas? £20 a head would be ideal.

It's not arty but coasteering at Dunbar is odd, but really good- I thought it'd be all about jumping off high stuff and there is some of that but it's much more about the clambering and getting places you never usually see. Lovely. Did completely lacerate my hands though

I have one that is free and exhilarating.

Let your family be approached by a foreign street thief and let rip. ;D

The Botanics gardens? Hopefully their waste management is contracted out 😊

If you like Jupiter Artland have you been to Little Sparta? At Dunsyre, not far from Edinburgh and a fantastic place. I'm currently at the Jupiter Rising festival, love the place 🙂
