Absolutely Stunning

Amazing App and well worth £1.99! The features are most informative and if you love the chapel (like me) and can't get there easily, this goes a great way to bringing it to you. Highly recommended

Rosslyn chapel

At present it seems to need more work! Buttons do not respond on most occasions. Almost impossible to navigate around. Sounded so exciting and lovely graphics but until problems are resolved it is not worth the money. 2 stars because it exists
