2 bedroom cottage

LOCATION

Dryburn Cottage is located in a semi-rural position on the edge of West Linton, however, within walking distance of the village centre. West Linton is a popular conservation village with a small number of shops, hotel/bar and restaurant, golf course, church and primary school. The village benefits from excellent access to Edinburgh and as such is popular with commuters, however, it retains a real village community within a pleasant rural area. Larger town services are available in Penicuik, approximately eight miles to the north-east, with secondary schooling provided in Peebles, approximately fourteen miles to the south-east. Edinburgh is approximately 22 miles to the north and is easily accessed via the A702.

DIRECTIONS

From Edinburgh, take the A702 south to West Linton. Within the “30” limit, turn first left at the roundabout onto Dryburn Brae. Continue down Dryburn Brae and turn left onto Deanfoot Road. Continue for approximately 100m and Dryburn Cottage is on the left, just before leaving the village.

Post Code: EH46 7AU. It is strongly recommended that you do not rely on a Satnav in this rural location and check on a route map prior to any scheduled viewing.
