Area Insights
Longcote House enjoys a central position within the village of Eddleston. Founded circa 1785, Eddleston Village is set where the Eddleston Water meets the Longcote Burn and the Dean Burn. Most of the central village, including three quaint old bridges fall within the Local Conservation Area. The traditional Horseshoe Inn, central to the village, offers excellent dining and accommodation as a small hotel. The luxurious Cringletie Country House Hotel is also nearby.

Peebles lies 5 minutes away by car. A thriving country town, Peebles has all the amenities one would expect with excellent independent retailers and service providers adding plenty to the mix. There are two national supermarkets in Peebles and some truly fantastic local suppliers such as Cocoa Black Chocolatiers, Forsyth’s of Peebles Butcher, Ross Dougal Fishmongers and Coltman’s Kitchen & Deli. There is a list of useful links below that might be of interest. Peebles also offers several medical practices, dentists, a library, art galleries and a museum. Schooling is well regarded in the immediate area with a choice of four Primary Schools and Peebles High School. Private schooling is available in Edinburgh and several of these schools offer bus services from Edinburgh to outlying areas.

The area around Peebles has many attractions to explore like the medieval stronghold of Neidpath Castle, Traquair House or the gardens of Kailzie or Dawyck. The area offers some fantastic sporting pursuits including cycling, bowls, curling, golf, hill walking and fishing on the River Tweed, arguably the most famous salmon river in the world. In general, the Borders provides excellent riding facilities with Kailzie Equestrian offering livery and excellent hacking opportunities. There are also a number of local point to points and the annual Peebles Beltane Week. Glentress, just outside Peebles is one of the 7 Stanes world class mountain bike venues, bringing the Tweed Love Festival to the area annually.

The A703 offers swift and easy access up to Edinburgh and for those not wanting to negotiate the Edinburgh traffic there is a handy park and ride facility at Straiton. Edinburgh Airport is very easily accessed around the Edinburgh by-pass.
