Arniston House

Arniston House tour

Thank you for visiting Arniston House. Arniston House is a magnificent William Adam, Palladian style mansion house set in acres of beautiful parkland just 11 miles from Edinburgh. It has been home to the Dundas family for over 400 years. We invite you to visit and marvel at the intricate stucco work and beautiful portraits by contemporary Scottish artists such as Sir Henry Raeburn and Alexander Nasmyth and to admire the fascinating period furniture. Birthplace to Henry Viscount Melville and two Lord Presidents of the Court of Session, a visit to Arniston will make a memorable and interesting day out.
