Number 5 - Westside Woodshed
You’re only 25 minutes from Edinburgh, but city life feels a thousand miles away at this two-storey pine-clad cabin in the Pentlands. Opened at the end of 2018, it stands at the end of a bumpy track on 3,000-acre hill farm with Scandi-style interiors: cool minimalism softened by sheepskin throws and deer-hide rugs. A double-height lounge and Finnish spruce-wood-fired hot tub look down across a wild, heathery glen. The friendly farmer owners provide homemade scones, tea and jam — perfect after hill walks from the back door.
