About Midlothian

(opens in new tab)

Midlothian is a compact council area immediately south of Edinburgh, stretching from the city bypass to the edge of the Scottish Borders.

It takes in the valleys of the North and South Esk rivers, the northern slopes of the Pentland Hills, and a string of former mining communities that have reinvented themselves as commuter towns and growing residential centres.

Dalkeith is the administrative centre, but Bonnyrigg is the most populous settlement — and Penicuik, set against the Pentlands, has the feel of a self-contained town in its own right.

The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Newtongrange, Gorebridge, and Eskbank to Edinburgh Waverley, and has driven significant housing growth across the region.

Midlothian is one of the fastest-growing local authority areas in Scotland, attracting families and professionals who want proximity to Edinburgh without the city price tag.
