Near the EDI departures shops cluster, Heritage of Scotland focuses on tartan-heavy souvenirs.
This shop sits in the main post-security retail run at Edinburgh Airport, a short walk from most gates. You get the standard Scottish hits: clan tartan scarves, kilts, caps, whisky-branded gifts, and shortbread tins stacked floor to ceiling. Prices range from about £5 for keyrings and magnets up to £80+ for heavier wool pieces, so it covers quick token gifts and more serious presents.
Opening hours generally track flight banks, with doors usually open from around the first departures of the morning until the late-evening Ryanair and easyJet waves. Stock leans heavily on “Scotland” branding: tea towels, mugs, kids’ hoodies, and rugby tops from well-known local labels you also see on Princes Street. It’s airport retail, so expect a modest markup versus city-centre tourist shops, especially on knitwear and branded clothing.
For last-minute gifts under £15, look at boxed shortbread, tablet, and whisky-flavoured chocolates, all clearly priced on end caps. Clothing and scarves sit toward the back wall and often push past £40, so check tags before loading up. If you need something that packs flat, the shop carries paperback Scottish history and folklore titles around the £10–£12 mark, plus A4 art prints and calendars.
Quick tip: if your boarding time is inside 20 minutes, grab smaller items from the front tables and pay at the nearest till; browsing kilts and knitwear toward the rear of Heritage of Scotland easily eats 10–15 minutes.
