Location

Eskbridge lies just nine miles south of Edinburgh on the outskirts of Penicuik making it ideal for those who want to live close to the countryside yet require quick access to the city centre. In 1775, this was the site of Esk Mill, the first cotton mill in Scotland and later a paper mill. This historic mill location is now a highly desirable place to live on the banks of the River Esk. The town centre of Penicuik has a variety of shops, leisure facilities and there is schooling from nursery to senior level. There is a large Tesco supermarket a short drive away as is the Straiton Retail Park where there are numerous retail outlets including Costco, Ikea and a Sainsbury's supermarket. The popular Glencorse Golf Course is within easy reach, and good walks are available along the River Esk public walkway which runs past the development and at the Pentland Hills Regional Park with an artificial ski slope being available at Hillend. The area is ideally situated with access to the City Bypass, the Airport and the central Scotland motorway network.
