Park in Dalkeith

“My partner and I have visited many dog parks (at least 15/20) and we’d say this one is the best one! We live over an hour away but make the journey as our wee beagle loves it here. Definitely one of the biggest ones we’ve been to and has everything (lots of space, sensory garden, lots of equipment, fresh water, poo bags, toilet facility etc). We’re wary of some parks in terms of safety and the wee one escaping but we have no worries with this one. Will be back soon!”

“Attended here on Sunday 13th October. First of all a massive shout out to the amazing staff you have here. Every single person we interacted with on our visit was fantastic. So friendly, attentive and overall great. Amazing to get this level of customer service. Thank you. Secondly this place is amazing. Me and my family and friends had such an amazing hour or so here. Everything was brilliant. We will definitely be back. My 6 and 9 year old loved their experience and the adults did too. Easy to find and amazing scenery.”

“Barklay Park Dog Daycare is an absolute gem. My dog Benny absolutely loves it there - he has the best time every single visit and comes home happy and tired from all the fun. The staff are incredible; so friendly, caring, and always go above and beyond to help. It's clear they genuinely love what they do, and Benny clearly feels that too. The location is brilliant, and really easy to get to, which makes everything that bit smoother. I honestly couldn't recommend it more - it's the perfect place if you want your dog to be safe and loved, and have a ball while you're away.”

“Beautiful walks, cafe, with plenty seating outside too, in lovely open courtyard. Good quality food in the restaurant. Excellent shopping, and scenery wonderful.”

“5 stars all around. Lovely restaurant inside. The lady was so very friendly and kind, and the food was delicious and came quickly. Very good prices. Two very happy customers!”

“Fantastic park to let your four legged friend run around. Our dog loves it.”

“Went to see a roller, Derby. Great venue inside and out. Very clean and well maintained and equipped. Pool was also well used”

“Great stay, staff really friendly and a clean site. Facilities are not spectacular but are more than sufficient and are clean. Only issue was other people staying not knowing how to use a toilet brush. Great site”

“Amazing room with sea vew. Great design. Absolutely brilliant. Very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.”

“Got referred for various tests due to ongoing ill health due to Medical malpractice/negligence at the hands of NHS Forth Valley Mental health dept, seen Respiratory surgeon, ENT surgeon, Neurologist & a Neurosurgeon - tests such as Nasal Endoscopy, EMG & Nerve conduction tests. The Neuroseurgeon also referred me for a brain, neck & shoulders MRI scan at the other Spire hospital in Edinburgh Murrayfield, fast, not long waiting times, good communications etc. The NHS is totally destroyed in Scotland & is not fit for purpose.”

“This tour was one of the highlights of our time in Edinburgh. Our guide was so friendly and knowledgeable about the areas we biked through. Our tour was so scenic and as promised, we hardly went near the road - all trails, which was perfect for us. Having e-bikes is a must since there were lots of hills and the e-bikes make it so much easier.”

“I needed some off-cuts to make a couple of temporary rugs from. Owner was very obliging and the lads out back dug some out for us, offered to help roll them, no charge. We will need some carpeting done in a couple of rooms in the future and would definitely consider this place given the service.”

“What an absolutely lovely couple. We felt welcome from the time that my husband and I walked into the Guest House. I celebrated my 50th birthday there and they made it even more special with a lovely bottle of champagne waiting for us in our room on our return from breakfast. I would thoroughly recommend their guest house, it is clean and modern and not far at all from the local amenities. There is a bus stop just to the right of the guest house and the buses are very regular. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Ted and Dot they helped make our time in Edinburgh even more special.”
