Location Tyninghame House enjoys a truly exceptional setting on Scotland’s east coast, lying to the east of Edinburgh within one of East Lothian’s most admired historic landscapes. The property is enveloped by approximately 38 acres of renowned gardens and parkland, where centuries of careful stewardship are evident throughout. The grounds themselves are rich in heritage features, including a 16th-century bowling green, a secret garden and an original ice house, positioned at the western end of a remarkable mile-long avenue which extends towards the sea. Residents of Tyninghame House benefit from an enviable estate lifestyle, with designated bridleways, cycle routes and footpaths weaving through both the immediate grounds and the surrounding woodland and parkland. A magnificent avenue of mature beech trees leads directly to the coastline, where expansive sandy beaches — including the celebrated Tyninghame Beach — connect seamlessly with the protected landscape of the John Muir Country Park and onwards to Belhaven Bay. Despite its sense of seclusion, the estate is exceptionally well connected. Edinburgh lies approximately 27 miles to the west, accessed via the A1, which becomes dual carriageway from Haddington. The coastal town of Dunbar, just six miles to the east, provides a mainline railway station offering direct services to Edinburgh and London King’s Cross. Closer still, East Linton — three miles to the west — offers everyday amenities including local shops, well-regarded pubs and restaurants, and a primary school. A new two-platform station on the East Coast mainline is scheduled for completion, further enhancing accessibility. The area is also renowned for its exceptional educational provision, with Belhaven Hill Preparatory School located near Dunbar and a wide selection of leading independent schools available within Edinburgh. East Lothian is internationally recognised as Scotland’s “Golf Coast,” with an outstanding concentration of championship links courses nearby, including North Berwick, Dunbar, Archerfield, The Renaissance Club, Muirfield, Luffness and the renowned courses at Gullane.
