Map of The Guesthouse @ ESKBANK
This awards winning Guesthouse @ Eskbank has undergone extensive upgrading and
refurbishing work. This family friendly Guesthouse ( Rathan House built 1852 ) had a new Bed
and Breakfast wing completed in 2004. The MacRaes have added to the ambiance of a grand
old Scottish Mansion by building a new wing with new excellent standard bedrooms with deep
pile Scotch wool carpeting modern ensuite facilities, double glazed sash & case windows and
excellent insulation.

The newbuild used traditional stonebuild to ensure no clash with the attractive, leafy Eskbank
and Newbattle Abbey conservation area. Choose "The Guesthouse @ Eskbank" in Dalkeith and
you would have an immaculate warm room with ensuite facilities and enjoy a traditional old
fashioned Highland healthy breakfast in the grand dining room. You would also find a large and
attractive, childsecure, walled garden with a croquet lawn - so you can relax and de-stress while
the kids let off their excess steam playing with Irene and Ewan's 3 Flatcoated Retreivers.
Guests have been complimentary since completion of the Eskbank upgrading works. If you are
looking for a guest house to enable easy park and bus ride to Edinburgh and seek a bed and
breakfast in the top 15% quality bracket, The Guesthouse @Eskbank fits the bill. There is also a
