An excellent and comfortable property, great to come back to after exploring the delights of Edinburgh. Well located, just 20 minutes from the Park and Ride. A quiet location on a vast estate.

About the host

Hosted by Henrietta Dundas

My family, The Dundas family, have owned and lived at Arniston for 450 years. We very much enjoy welcoming visitors to the estate to experience the timeless beauty of our home. The current mansion house was built by William Adam in 1726 and many of our cottage visitors enjoy the guided tours which run from May to mid-September. We are so fortunate to live in the country yet we have Edinburgh with all its attractions just a short train ride away.

Why they chose this property

The properties were built in the 18th century to house the foresters who worked on the estate in days gone by.

What makes this property unique

The stunning setting for our properties is always remarked on. Arniston is a designated designed landscape with many ancient broadleaf trees and wonderful woodlands to explore with pets. We have the best of both worlds as the buzz of our capital city, Edinburgh with all its attractions is a 25 minute train ride away.
