02 01 2025 Pentland Hills Edinburgh Scotland mini 4 pro

The Pentland Hills make the ideal getaway for the hillwalker looking for a convenient rural bolthole. The Regional Park's accessibility from Edinburgh makes it perfect for a quick jaunt. However, the spectacular scenery is interesting and challenging enough to warrant longer stays. Eastside Cottages is one of the very few places to stay that is actually in amongst the hills. This means that if you stay with us, no driving or trekking along roads to get to the start of your walk is needed. The hills are crisscrossed with paths to explore. Details of our favourite walks can be found on the farm & hills page. Don't miss the "Pentland Peak" walk. Starting from Eastside Cottages the walk leads over the picturesque peaks to Flotterstone, the local pub, and a well earned pint!
