Houses and hideaways
Dotted across the landscape, our houses and hideaways each bring their own character and quiet charm. Thoughtfully restored, they offer gentle comforts and a close connection to the nature beyond your window. Step inside and settle into spaces made for slowing down, fires to curl up beside, long breakfasts, and time that unfolds at an easy pace.
Whether you’re here for solitude or good company, these retreats invite you to unwind, recharge, and enjoy life’s simplest pleasures.
Penicuik House
At the heart of the estate stands Penicuik House, a lovingly restored, sixteen-bedroom house made for gatherings, celebrations, weddings and quiet escapes.
With its blend of historic grandeur and modern warmth, this is a place where every corner invites you to linger a little longer. Here, memories unfurl in elegant rooms and sunlit gardens, and every occasion feels a touch more special.
Penicuik House is more than a setting, it’s a place where togetherness comes alive, thoughtfully designed for shared stories and stolen moments.
The estate kitchen
At Penicuik House, food is at the heart of every gathering, with menus inspired by the seasons and lovingly crafted in partnership with The Edinburgh Catering Company. Indulge in generous, family-style feasts, brimming with Scotland’s finest ingredients, dishes designed to be shared, celebrated, and remembered.
For our houses and hideaways, elevate your stay with a private chef who can transform any meal into an experience to savour, where stories and laughter linger long into the night. Or discover our bespoke hampers, filled with local delicacies and artisanal treats. Ideal for lingering breakfasts, relaxed evenings by the Big Green Egg, or cosy nights in.
Our team
From your very first enquiry to the last fond farewell, our team is devoted to making everything feel beautifully effortless. With obsessive attention to detail and a warm, intuitive touch, we handle every element of your stay, from arranging bespoke experiences to ensuring every detail is just right, so you can simply relax and enjoy precious time together.
Experiences
Let your days unfold at your own pace, filled with adventure or perfectly unhurried. Roam the landscape on guided e-bike rides, lose yourself on peaceful foraging walks, or surrender to quiet moments in a wood-fired sauna. Each experience is yours alone and woven to help you reconnect with nature and the gentle rhythm of the estate.
