Enjoying a picturesque spot in a pretty apple orchard on a 60-acre working equestrian centre, this idyllic shepherd’s hut with a fully fenced, dog-friendly orchard garden is the ultimate romantic retreat for two.

The studio-style open-plan layout provides all your creature comforts amongst a homely atmosphere that’ll set tails wagging. Country cottage style touches embrace the beauty of your scenic setting, whilst plush soft furnishings beckon weary walkers to sit back and relax. Rustle up some tasty treats for your loved ones, including your four-pawed pal, in the contemporary, farmhouse-style kitchen. During the warmer months, leave the patio-style front door open to enjoy the whistle of the evening breeze. When it’s time to pause from chasing your tail, the inviting king-size bed promises a peaceful rest. A stylish shower room completes this beautiful bolthole. Outside, the decked terrace and enclosed wraparound garden offer space for playful pups to let off steam as you dine alfresco or soak in the wood-fired hot tub. The yard has a secure dog field and dog walking service, which you can arrange to use during your visit. There is ample off-road parking.

The surrounding apple orchard is brimming with scenic walks to discover with your canine companion in tow. The coastal villages of South Queensferry (2 miles) and North Queensferry (5 miles) offer dog-friendly beaches and access to the Fife Coastal Path, perfect for anyone with a nose for adventure. The historic city of Edinburgh, 7 miles away, offers an array of parks and green spaces that your four-pawed pal will go mutts for. Located in the heart of Edinburgh, Princes Street Gardens is a picturesque setting for a walkies, with wonderful views of Edinburgh Castle.

Lovely modern shepherds hut with beautiful enclosed garden for our dogs. Peaceful and quiet location but close enough to S Queensferry for conveniences.

Totley Apple Hut is fabulous. No expense has been spared. The quality of the interior furnishings and exterior garden with a wood burning hot tub and secure garden for the dog makes your stay a real treat. Karen is a wonderful host and communication was first class . Via WhatsApp she shared tremendous recommendations which made our whole stay even Read morebetter , if that was possible. We would highly recommend Totleywells Rural Stays. There is dog friendly pub close by and , if needed, you can drive into the centre of Edinburgh within 25mins . Well worth a visit! Hide
