About this property

Amazing "Outlander" Countryside Cottage Room at 4* B&B Parkhead House

"Iona" Ground Floor Suite (twin or double - you let us know):​

Our ground floor "easy access" suite is ideal for anyone who wants to avoid stairs yet be in the body of the cottage. The Iona bedroom with its two single beds (or made into one large double) has the best incredibly soft and cosy mattresses we could find, shutters on the windows and a fireplace!

Complete with your own sitting room/breakfast room, just the perfect setting for a countryside break.

These bright rooms, each with two windows overlooking the rear garden and the Deer Park completes with a large en-suite shower room.
PARKHEAD HOUSE & OUTLANDER TOURS

A Visit Scotland 4* award winning bed and breakfast located right next to many "OUTLANDER" filming locations and only a short walk from "LALLYBROCH". We can offer our guests private walking tours from the cottage to Hopetoun House, Abercorn Church, Midhope Castle and Blackness Castle.

We are a simple 15 minute drive from EDINBURGH AIRPORT and to the EDINBURGH TRAM SYSTEM for easy and quick access into the city centre.

Parkhead House offers unique overnight cottage stays with the added benefit of welcoming hosts and a great Scottish breakfast.

This former Gamekeepers cottage is set on the edge of the idyllic Deer Park at the heart of Hopetoun and is just a short walk from Hopetoun House and Lallybroch itself.

We offer one, one-bedroom suite on the ground floor and one, two-bedroom suite on the 1st floor. All bedrooms are en-suite with wonderful views over wooded parkland northwards to the river Forth and Fife.

Each bedroom is individual yet beautifully appointed with the highest standard of furnishings and can be booked for a stay of one night or for a stay as long as you require.

Being only 15 minutes from Edinburgh Airport and 10 minutes from either Dalmeny or Linlithgow railway stations this makes Parkhead House a relaxed place to stay but still close to both Edinburgh and Glasgow.

We offer private accommodation, freedom and flexibility combined with the welcome of a traditional bed and breakfast so those travelling with children, enjoying the great outdoors or bringing the family pet can relax knowing you have your own private sitting room/breakfast room during your stay.

Each suite has tea/coffee making facilities, Free View TV, FREE Wi-Fi, radio alarm, hairdryer, towels, bathrobes and toiletries.

Our breakfasts are made using the best local organic produce supplied where possible by the Hopetoun Farm Shop and Estate.

We now offer wi-fi throughout the cottage and garden which you can use for free.

Nora

Our best stay in Scotland!

We stayed in the spacious, comfortable Iona Suite on the first floor of this lodge. Included were living/dining room, a pantry with kettle and fridge stocked with all sorts of delicious treats (from smoked salmon to fresh fruit - in addition to a cooked breakfast), a large bedroom with comfortable queen bed and quality linens, and a bathroom with the fluffiest bath sheets we've encountered (along with robes and slippers). James was helpful with logistics and offered Outlander and history tours.

Our Favorite B&B

This was our second stay at Parkhead House and my only regret is that we couldn't have stayed longer. Angela and James are fantastic hosts and anticipate every need that a guest could have. The location is in the countryside, yet only a 10-15 minute drive to EDI airport and a local P&R with easy tram service into Edinburgh. Would definitely stay here again, but would try to stay longer next time. For Outlander lovers, also close to many filming sites. A++++

Our best stay in scotland

James was such a nice, welcoming host. Parkhead house was very conveniently located to both the airport and to Midhope Castle. Breakfast was the best breakfast we had had during our week tour around scotland (this was the last place we stayed before leaving). From the moment we walked in we felt like we were staying at a friend's house. James even surprised us at midhope castle the next morning knowing we would be there and gave us a private tour! The room was well kept and clean and bigger than

Annual visit

We have been going to the Iona Suite at Parkhead House for a few days every year during the RHS in June. An extremely comfortable suite which has a huge ensuite with a shower which is suitable as I have a disability. James always makes us so welcome. Booked again for next year!

Comfy homelike environment in a beautiful location.

If you book the Iona suite, it is like having your own home with living room, stocked fridge and coffee bar, bedroom and bath. All of this in a beautiful setting. Honestly I booked it for our last night in Scotland because it was close to the airport. My only regret is that we didn't arrive earlier to enjoy the beautiful setting and surrounding attractions.

The absolute best lodgings of our entire trip.

Very "authentic" house. Nicely furnished, and well attend by the owners. Central to the areas we wanted to visit, and most excellent "Outlander" knowledge by the hosts.

Excellent stay

My husband and I stayed here in order to be close to the airport for a morning flight. Every need was taken care of - directions to the airport; an early breakfast and recommendation for dinner.
