In an age when taste and style seem to be the
first sacrifice to convenience, it is a rarity to find a place like
the Craigiebield House Hotel.
Situated
in the splendid, picturesque Midlothian countryside, this Victorian
House has been generously and sympathetically refurbished to retain
its inherent charm while providing every comfort and convenience to
satisfy discerning guests.
Built in 1824, the
hotel is in the historically rich town of Penicuik. The town and
Midlothian itself are so close to Edinburgh that it was once known
as Edinburghshire. Penicuik itself is well known for its
erstwhile paper mills and fine crystal ware.
 It owns
grand views of the undulating Pentland Hills which are
emblematic of Scotland’s gentle, idyllic landscape. A sense of
sophisticated county life comes to mind while enjoying the hotel’s
landscaped gardens which carry the eye to the hills.
This feeling of country luxury pervades the hotel, from the tasteful
furnishing of all 18 en-suite rooms, to the bar and the restaurant
where a touch of elegant art deco lingers.
Craigiebield House Hotel has become a favoured place for large
occasions like Weddings and Conferences. The hotel is ideally suited
to accommodate up to 200 people in the Pentland Suite. The airy and
welcoming conservatory is perfect for a boardroom style gathering of
about 30 people.
Both of these rooms are licensed for Civil Ceremonies and few would
deny the that the charm of the premises and the marvellous views are
the ideally disposed to occasions of love and romance.
 Of course, the availability of the rooms, three of which are junior
suites with Jacuzzis, means that every detail, want and need of a
large occasion are contained within the grounds.
Particularly perfect for occasions where a number of people are
getting together from different places for any period of time.
Although the peaceful countryside might make it hard to believe, the
airport is very close for those who have to travel any lengthy
distance. While the Midlothian Hotel location
and premises provide convenience and charm, Craigiebield’s excellent
restaurant takes care of those vital culinary aspects with the same
unpretentious approach to marrying country cooking with balanced
sophistication. Preferring an ethic of fresh and
sustainable local produce, the fine dining menu changes to
accommodate seasonal dishes and take advantage of the freshest, most
prized ingredients.
From romantic Midlothian Hotel
weekends in pampered luxury to quiet business stopovers in
Edinburgh, as well as for large and special occasions such as
weddings, The Craigiebield House Hotel lends any visit
something rare and special.
