Edinburgh dark skies?

[Frazcam]

Hi everyone.

New to the forum after recently dabbling in a bit of astro photography - and now keen for a bit more! As such I was wondering where I can go near Edinburgh that offers some decent dark skies. Any ideas? Many thanks for any advice.

There a group of us on the Central Scotland Observers Group Forum one of our usual haunts is Harperigg Reservoir - see this page for weather and a link to the location
