Harlaw House was originally built as a waterkeeper’s cottage soon after the reservoir was constructed in 1848. Originally a single-storey building, it had a brief incarnation with an extra floor, before City of Edinburgh Council restored it to its original form. It is now a visitor information centre for the Pentland Hills Regional Park, disseminating information to walkers, cyclists, horse-riders and wanderers! Since the early 2000s it has hosted a wildlife garden, maintained on a regular basis by Friends of the Pentlands.

ACTIVITIES

We will invite a variety of local community organisations to attend in order to showcase their work in the Pentland Hills Regional Park, including: Harlaw Hydro, Balerno Village Trust, Youth Vision, Friends of the Pentlands, Bonaly Scout Camp, Bobcat Alpacas and Malleny Angling Association.
