Roslin is an idyllic village with a thriving community atmosphere. It is situated roughly seven miles to the south of Edinburgh city centre, offering a picturesque locale by the River North Esk. It has an excellent position for a swift commute (thirty minutes by car) to the heart of the capital, whilst also offering the perfect base for exploring the great outdoors. From gentle strolls in the wooded glen of Roslin Glen Country Park, to a day at Rosslyn Chapel, Rosslyn Castle, and Wallace’s Cave, the area abounds with scenic opportunities. In addition, it is well placed to make the most of the Pentland Hills. Roslin has excellent local amenities too, including a choice of shops, a Post Office, a library, a medical centre, and a dental practice, as well as two hotels serving food and drink, an Italian restaurant, and a Scotmid supermarket with a cashpoint. There is also a charming garden centre and restaurant near Loanhead. Nearby Straiton Retail Park provides more extensive shopping and leisure facilities, with a wide selection of high-street stores, eateries, and supermarkets. With easy access to the City of Edinburgh Bypass, Edinburgh International Airport, the M8/M9 motorway network, and the Queensferry Crossing, as well as to the city centre, Roslin is unsurprisingly popular with professionals and commuters. Regular public transport links to the capital also serve the village. Home Report £105,000 EPC: C
