Book now with Booking.com

Set in the shadow of Arthur's Seat, Prestonfield House offers the privacy and seclusion of a country estate right in the heart of Edinburgh, five minutes from the Old Town, with 20 acres of gardens and parkland around it. All 23 bedrooms and suites take dogs, and this dog friendly hotel lets you step from the house straight onto walking routes with your dog.

Tell the team about your dog in advance, and a comfortable dog bed can be ready in your room when you arrive. Dogs are welcome in the historic drawing rooms, lounges and public spaces throughout the house, every one except Rhubarb, so you can settle into the atmosphere of the place together. The dog page doesn't state a per-room limit, nor anything on leaving a dog by itself, so check both with the team.

The hotel pictures afternoon drinks in elegant surroundings as part of a stay with your dog, though it doesn't say where you can eat together, so check how meals work for you both. Rhubarb, the destination restaurant, has two AA Rosettes to its name and a signature Angus beef Sunday roast. Michelin has given the hotel one Key.

The 23 rooms and suites are furnished in an opulent, individual style, and the Lord Provost Suite has an antique mahogany four-poster bed. Arthur's Seat and Holyrood Park are around five to ten minutes from the door, Wildpack puts Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags Circular just 0.5 miles off, and reception can suggest routes for you and your dog during your stay.
