Surrounded by stunning countryside, Laurel Park offers plenty of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. The Almondell and Calderwood Country Park, less than a 5 minute drive from home, offers an abundance of trails for walking, cycling or horseback riding through tranquil parkland.
Closer to home, Bankton Mains Park is around a 20 minute walk from Laurel Park and incorporates a children’s play area, sports centre and bowling club, as well as tennis and football pitches.
Almond Valley Heritage Trust, situated on a wooded riverside, is around a 10-minute drive from the development and offers an ideal day out for families. The stone buildings of the watermill and byres are home to friendly farm animals, while trampolines and pedal carts provide ample opportunity for imaginative outdoor play. Children can enjoy a trailer ride or a trip on the narrow gauge railway, whilst the onsite café offers a welcome retreat.
With such close proximity to Edinburgh, there are countless attractions to be enjoyed within a short drive of Laurel Park. Not only is Edinburgh the leading festival city in the world, but it is also a UNESCO world heritage site.
