Details

The Old Millhouse is a magnificent retreat that combines historic character with contemporary luxury. Situated within 3.5 acres of private grounds in the picturesque town of Dalkeith, just eight miles from Edinburgh, the property offers an exclusive escape with a concierge assistance (if required) to ensure every detail of your stay is flawless.

The house, steeped in rich history, underwent a sensitive restoration in 2012, breathing new life into its original features while introducing fresh, modern design elements. Spanning four floors, the bedrooms are located between the first and third floors, accessed via the main staircase, while the ground floor offers an inviting collection of spaces for relaxation and connection.

The Orangery, with windows on three sides, is filled with natural light and offers lovely views of the gardens. A large oak dining table seating ten provides a perfect space for gatherings, while sumptuous sofas and a remote-controlled modern fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere. For a more intimate retreat, the snug offers cosy leather armchairs, soft lighting and a bar, making it an ideal spot for a whisky tasting or private entertaining. Throughout the house, luxurious textiles, including Indian silks and the comforting crackle of a log fire enhance the sense of warmth and elegance.

Each of the five bedrooms is uniquely designed to offer exquisite comfort, furnished with Hypnos Wool and Cashmere beds, feather and wool duvets, organic body care products, cosy bathrobes, fluffy towels and house slippers. The Millers on the first floor enjoys garden and river views, a super king bed, period furnishings and an en-suite with a walk-in rain shower. The Pentland on the second floor offers the flexibility of twin beds that can be joined as a super king, complemented by period décor and an en-suite with a rain shower. The Esk Master Suite, also on the second floor, features a super king bed surrounded by antique furnishings and beautiful views, with an en-suite offering a roll-top bath, rain shower, bidet and heated flooring. On the third floor, the Dalkeith provides twin beds convertible to a super king, antique furnishings and an en-suite with a shower, while the Toile de Jour, inspired by French design, offers a super king bed, antique décor and an en-suite shower.

The grounds of The Old Millhouse are meticulously cared for, offering a tranquil and picturesque setting. Manicured gardens, lush woodlands and the gentle sounds of the River Esk create an idyllic environment for relaxation or recreation. Guests can enjoy mindful yoga sessions, woodland walks, croquet, or simply lounging with a book under a majestic tree. The hot tub spa, with hydrotherapy jets, provides an additional layer of indulgence, relieving stress and soothing muscles. Robes, spa towels and flip-flops are provided, making it easy to transition from spa time to relaxing in the garden with a drink.

Dining at The Old Millhouse is a memorable experience, whether enjoying meals al fresco on the terrace during warmer months or gathering for pre and post dinner drinks. A private chef can be arranged to craft culinary experiences tailored to your preferences, ensuring every meal is a celebration.
