Architect-designed cabin in the hills near Edinburgh. Wood-fired hot tub. | Cottage in Penicuik

1 Bedroom Cottage in Penicuik
The Woodshed is a contemporary, rural and architect-designed cottage just 10 miles from central Edinburgh. Nestled at the end of a meandering farm track, this luxury self-catering haven is surrounded by the rugged heather hills and glens of the Pentland Hills Regional Park on Eastside Farm..
Architecture & Experience - Fabricated from whitewashed CLT wood panels, the light-filled double-height space exudes a Scandinavian ambiance. Sunlight pours through large glazed doors that offer stunning views of the hills. Pops of colour enliven the softly muted yet uplifting dรฉcor through snug throws and quirky furniture. An open-plan kitchen and a cleverly folding dining table allow the main room to be both flexible and spacious.
Notably, The Woodshed received a commendation in the Saltire Societyโs Housing Design Awards and has been featured in Dwell.
Bedroom & Bathroom - Follow the staircase as it wraps around the stove leading up to the mezzanine floor, where an inviting kingsize bed awaits you. Immerse yourself in crisp white linen, an ultra-luxurious throw, and beautiful cushions designed by a local artist. Drift off to sleep in ultimate comfort to soothing sounds of the crackling stove and rustling trees outside. The ground-floor bathroom features white paneling paired with an exquisite slate rain shower. A polished concrete floor with underfloor heating extends throughout.
Outside - Situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this unique self-catering cottage is part of the beautifully designed Westside Farmstead on Eastside Farm. The Pentland Hills serve adventure-seeking souls looking for breathtaking hilltop vistas, cascading waterfalls, and heather glens. Thereโs a pub a few milesโ walk over the hills; however, if you crave โcity lifeโ, Edinburgh is just a short drive away.
Begin your day with a trek into the heather-covered hills right from your doorstep. Eastside invites you to explore the 3,000-acre organic hill farm to your heartโs content.
Embrace slow living and light the wood-fired hot tub. Crystal clear Scottish spring water is heated with wood sourced from the farm itself farm; watch smoke curl from the chimney as the air fills with aromatic woodsmoke. Watch the sunset as it turns into a starry night sky from the warmth of the outdoor tub.
Practicalities - The Woodshed stands secluded in a quiet glen of Pentland Hills. Itโs accessed via a mile-long farm track thatโs slightly bumpy but manageable for regular cars if taken slowly. Parking is available beside the cottage (max two cars). There is an EV charger available for use at Eastside (10 minutes walk or 5 mins drive away). We live just next doorโ and weโre happy to help should you need us but will otherwise respect your privacy. Given the propertyโs mile-long distance from the main road we do recommend the use of a car for your stay.
