Pass the stone gatehouse and follow the long, tree-lined drive to the house, pea hens skittering in front of the car. You will be in no doubt you have found a traditional country house retreat.
But you haven’t left the modern world that far behind. This imposing Victorian mansion set in 55 acres of verdant lawns, secluded parkland and meadows is just a short distance from the vibrant city of Edinburgh. Norton House itself offers the best of both worlds too. In the original manor, with its grand staircase and period furnishings, you’ll be delighted by the quiet opulence of oak panelling, ornamental ceilings, deep-buttoned leather and rich brocades. Yet, moving further into the House, you’ll discover rooms that give comfort a more contemporary look. Leather, mirrors, satins and silk are used to create a style that’s much more modern but no less sumptuous. But if the decor is varied, the hospitality you’re offered will be entirely uniform and totally genuine. It will set the tone for your entire stay and create an atmosphere that will quickly make you feel completely at home. Its a feeling that is fuelled by fine wines and award-winning cuisine, as well as the comforts provided by the luxurious rooms.
