Housekeeper’s Rooms – Oxenfoord Castle

Pathhead

Edinburgh and Lothians, Scotland

This exquisite apartment is uniquely set within Oxenfoord Castle near the village of Pathhead in Midlothian, Scotland. Surrounded by picturesque castle views and roaming deer, it offers outstanding accommodation for families or groups of four looking to explore the region.

After climbing four flights of stairs, guests arrive in a practical boot area for coats and shoes before entering the spacious open-plan living space, which combines a fully equipped galley kitchen, dining area, and comfortable lounge. The contemporary kitchen provides everything needed for self-catering, while the cosy seating area invites you to unwind in front of the TV after a day exploring the Scottish countryside.

The apartment sleeps four across two bright bedrooms—a king-size master and a twin room—served by a modern family bathroom with a bath and shower over.

Outside, guests can roam the beautiful 18th-century woodland grounds of the castle, which change with the seasons, from snowdrops to daffodils to summer roses. Two on-site tennis courts are also available, and there is off-road parking for two cars at the castle entrance.

Just a short drive from historic Edinburgh—or reachable via Newcraighall train station seven miles away—the property is ideally placed for enjoying the city’s famous Fringe and International Festivals. Nearby, guests can also enjoy hiking, golf, and horse riding.

Housekeeper’s Rooms offers a superb base for families or friends wishing to explore this spectacular part of Scotland at any time of year.
