About this house rental
This Edinburgh area holiday house was newbuilt as new self contained wing of Rathan House (1852). Set in the leafy upmarket Eskbank conservation area , it has 2 french windows from the lounge to a shared croquet lawn and quiet south facing walled garden.
Off street parking. 2 very good restaurants and a pleasant pub within 200 metres.
Excellent Edinburgh park and ride retreat with buses every 10 mins and trains every half hour to central Edinburgh. Edinburgh , the Lothians and the Borders have too many visitor attractions to cite all, the owners can help design bespoke daytrips - Eg Hogwarts Alnwick , Holy Isle and Hadrians Wall ; Traquair, Bowhill and Abbotsford; North Berwick Seabird center beeches and Museum of Flight.
Edinburgh speaks for itself but note that this Dalkeith vacation rental is 5 kilometres from Roslin Chapel., 1km from the Butterfly farm and Dobbies ..& 800 metres from Dalkeith Palace.
The house has a large kitchen diner with seating for 6 (8 at a push) ...3 showers , 4 wc's and a bidet. It has sash and case wooden double glazing and high standard modern insulation. The owners take pride in the housekeeping standards.

8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
Nice appartement with a large living-kitchen. Ideally located for a trip to Edinburgh; a 45 minutes ride with the bus that stops nearly in front of the appartement. Two supermarkets nearby (one 500m walk, the other 5 minutes drive). Parking on private ground in front of the appartement. And a very large and nice garden at the back op the house.Roselyn Chapel, worth a visit, is closeby with car. And a 45 minutes ride away is Jupiter Artland. A sculpture garden on a estate. We spent a whole day wandering around and had a delightful lunch. A day tour to the coast (North Berwick, St. Abbs) is also worth the effort.

Beautiful place to stay but need vehicle to get around. Bus located right out front but 35 min ride into Edinburgh. Otherwise, great place.
