Logan Manor makes a wonderful home for those wanting to enjoy a relaxed Scottish break, in easy reaching distance of Edinburgh and fantastic attractions and amenities. Set in the village of Dalkeith, within three and a half acres of private gardens, it offers complete peace and quiet. When listening to the soothing sounds of the River Esk, which runs through the property, it will be hard to believe you are just a short car journey away from the buzzing capital city.
Originally dating back to 1703, the Manor has been lovingly modernised in recent years by its current owners who have managed to seamlessly blend its original charm and character with updated interiors and contemporary facilities. Logan Manor can comfortably accommodate up to ten guests across five beautifully appointed bedrooms, each of which boasting its very own en-suite bathroom.
On the ground floor is the fully equipped kitchen which comes complete with all the tools a budding chef could possibly need as well as a bright sun room, the perfect spot to enjoy some quite time with a good read while enjoying the garden views. Upstairs, on the first floor is the main drawing room, with its cosy fireplace this is a fantastic space to snuggle up and put on your favourite film. Also on this level is the first of the bedrooms, a super-king room with en-suite bathroom. On the second floor is the beautiful master suite with its super-king bed and luxurious en-suite bathroom complete with indulgent roll-top bath and walk-in rain shower. There is also a further bedroom, a twin, which can on request be set up as a super-king, with en-suite shower room. Finally, on the third floor are the remaining two bedrooms, a super-king room, and a twin room, which again on request can be set up as a super-king room, both of which boast an en-suite shower room.

I can thoroughly recommend Logan Manor which is a beautiful house in stunning grounds. Sally, the owner, gave us a very warm welcome and was very helpful if we needed anything. The house was extremely well equipped and we enjoyed a very generous welcome pack. Very convenient for visiting to Edinburgh, we had a fantastic holiday and hope to be back.

Thank you so much for your warm and generous hospitality when we visited two weeks ago. We fell in love with the beautiful Logan Manor and the timing of our trip was perfect in so many ways. We have admiration for all that the owner has achieved and for the exquisite detail applied, not only in the restoration, but also in the interior design and decor throughout. Our little Scottish respite was just the oasis we needed. There’s no doubt that we'll be back to visit again sometime, hopefully with our family.
