Newhailes House, Musselburgh
Newhailes House, Musselburgh, Country house in Musselburgh, Scotland
The Palladian villa features ornate 17th-century architecture with a rococo interior, wood-paneled corridors, and formal dining rooms arranged in an enfilade layout.
The Dalrymple family acquired the property in 1709, renaming it New Hailes and completing significant extensions, including the Library Wing in 1721.
The estate served as a center of intellectual activity during the Scottish Enlightenment, with Sir David Dalrymple hosting gatherings of prominent thinkers.
The 32-hectare estate, maintained by the National Trust for Scotland, provides parking facilities and lies just 5 miles from First Stage Studios.
The estate contains an 18th-century shell grotto and Rococo landscape garden designed by horticulturist John Hay.
