The Old Millhouse has a contemporary, luxurious finish while using original raw materials such as stone and wood to echo its heritage.
The mix of antiques and new design reflects this balance: there is a traditional, country-house feel, but also WiFi throughout, a Sonos music system and power showers in all the bathrooms. Owner Sally de Waard has lovingly hand-picked every element of the house interior, from the superb textiles and rugs to paintings and ceramics: her elegant style fuses a classic British look with a hint of the colonial and Far East, and it’s one of the things that makes The Old Millhouse so special.
The ground floor is where the magnificent sun room is located: with glass on three sides it’s the ideal place to enjoy the stunning garden view. The impressive fireplace, sofas you can sink into, and a dining table seating ten make this the hub of the house.
A sleek and professional-standard kitchen with breakfast bar has all the appliances you’d expect. A cosy den with its own bar is the perfect hideaway for enjoying a dram, while upstairs a beautiful drawing room with working fireplace and cleverly hidden wall-mounted TV is a lovely place to relax and watch a movie or the big match, with its window seats and sumptuous fabrics including Indian silks and linens.

You’re surrounded by impressive landscapes
The Pentland Hills Regional Park is a living, working landscape that offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors. Sculpted by glaciers and water, then shaped by people over thousands of years, the Pentland Hills are a special place in Midlothian.

There are also a variety of local walking groups, perfect if you’re new to the area and looking to make friends.

It’s important to know where your nearest breakfast spot is and The Lea in Currie is only five minutes away from Molly’s. Perfectly positioned as a fuelling station near the Water of Leith walkway, Molly’s serves up delicious, freshly cooked meals and the most impressive cakes.
Pandas are your neighbours!
For a fun day out with the kids, Edinburgh Zoo is only four miles away. The largest and most exciting wildlife attraction in Scotland, in just one day you can meet over 1000 animals, including the UK’s only pandas and koalas. There are also a wide range of unforgettable experiences, from a free Hilltop Safari ride to keeper workshops as well as play areas, restaurants and picnic areas.
You can explore a hidden natural asset
The Water of Leith is fully maintained by volunteers, making it one of the most beautiful rivers in the country and a haven for wildlife. Flowing for 24 miles from its source in the Pentland Hills, the river winds its way through the heart of the capital to the Firth of Forth. The river is home to a wide diversity of plants and animals from wild garlic and orchids to brown trout, heron, kingfisher and otter – it’s also a birdwatcher’s paradise, with over 80 species of bird.
It’s home to one of Scotland’s top golf resorts
Dalmahoy Golf Club boasts a beautiful inland golf course, which has hosted many important Scottish amateur and professional events since 1927. Dalmahoy's East and West courses are representations of everything that is good about Scottish golf as they provide a strong test to all abilities and are as enjoyable as any top championship course you will find. The course offers stunning views across the region, where you can see as far as the Forth Bridges and new Queensferry Crossing as well as over to Edinburgh Castle.

Sunday Sessions Scotland 2018
Here are the highlights from Sunday Sessions Scotland 2018, held at Dalkeith Country Park.
Winter in Scotland- my favorite place in the world!!
I fell in love with Scotland when I was in college. I ended up studying abroad twice and living there for a total of 7 months. I’ve gone back multiple times since so keep in mind that these are the decisions an experienced traveler made ( not that you need to be experienced to do what I did just that I had options and background knowledge on what might be best to do and this is what I chose!)
I don’t know if it’s the gloomy skies, soot covered gothic buildings, and the handsome men in kilts with the charming accents and personalities or if it’s the feeling I got the first time that I landed in a place where no one knew me and I didn’t know anyone and I was free to truly be myself but either way, I fell in love with Scotland.
If you aren’t already a fan of HBO’s Outlander series, you should be. That’s what inspired my stay in Scotland this time around, along with the amazing deal I got on the flight via the Hopper app.
This trip was in November, which Scots consider winter so a LOT of attractions are closed and on top of that, a lot of Scotlands most hidden treasures are hard to find. They’re not often listed as places to go by google or pamphlets in Scotland. This was also a family friendly trip as I took this trip with my 4 year old son and my mother tagging along which is worth mentioning. Winter is a great time to go if you want to save money on flights as well as hotels and enjoy Edinburgh during the holidays which is purely magical.
The bed and breakfast we stayed at (Parkhead House) is known for being central to many of Outlander’s most used and famous filming locations (as well as having special access to some things Outlander).
Whether or not you’re an Outlander fan need not matter as this location in a suburb of Edinburgh is central to many castles as well as nearby Edinburgh city centre and airport. The house itself is just outside of South Queensferry which offers quaint restaurants, breathtaking views, and free parking.
The house itself is located on the Hopetoun estate (the Versailles of Scotland, a must-see) and is on the most peaceful British “deer park” (or as we would say in the US, farm) you can imagine. While you sleep peacefully in the country side, sheep and deer frolic in the fields just outside your window. Could it be anymore story book?! The Parkhead house also offers a wide variety of breakfast including anything you want off of the menu cooked by James, the host! Angela and James were amazing; helpful, and very friendly hosts, we loved them! If you’re renting a car this couldn’t be a better place for you! B&B LINK:
