555 Castlehill , The Royal Mile Edinburgh, Scotland, EH1 2ND Phone: 0131 226 1555 Website Old Town Weaving Company is now called the 'Tartan Weaving Mill.' Occupying the building that held the old Castlehill reservoir, this establishment is like an extensive complex of concessions where you can do everything from grab an ice-cream to snack in a conservatory café, have your picture taken in full Highland dress or simply buy a kilt. The weaving mill itself is run by Geoffrey (Tailor), a respected Highland outfitters. As well as being a working mill, this is a Victorian building bang in the heart of tourist country, and it can get pretty hot and busy in summer.
