Dog-friendly cottages in Edinburgh

City breaks with tails wagging

Planning a getaway to Edinburgh with your pup? Scotland’s capital isn’t just steeped in history – it’s also packed with green spaces, dog-welcoming venues and scenic spots. Whether you’re wandering cobbled streets or hiking up hilltop viewpoints, Edinburgh is one of the UK’s best cities to explore with your dog.

Our collection of dog-friendly cottages in Edinburgh puts you close to iconic attractions and leafy parks, so you can enjoy the best of the city without leaving your pup behind.

Why choose a dog-friendly holiday in Edinburgh?

From historic castles to panoramic parks, Edinburgh offers a little something for everyone – pups included. You’ll find an impressive number of pubs, cafés and shops that welcome dogs, along with sprawling spaces like Holyrood Park and the Meadows for easy morning strolls.

Whether you’re wandering down the Royal Mile, climbing Arthur’s Seat or grabbing a bite in Stockbridge, Edinburgh is a city that caters to four-legged visitors as much as their humans. And with the Scottish Borders and Loch Lomond just a short drive away, it's the ideal base for a longer dog-friendly adventure, too.

Best dog-friendly walks in and around Edinburgh

You don’t need to leave the city to find scenic dog walks. Here are some top local picks:

  • Arthur’s Seat and Holyrood Park – a must-do Edinburgh walk. Dogs on leads can join you on the trails up this extinct volcano, with rewarding views at the top.
  • The Water of Leith Walkway – this peaceful 12-mile route runs from Balerno to Leith, passing through pretty suburbs like Dean Village and Stockbridge.
  • The Meadows – a central green space perfect for a casual stroll or a throw of the ball.
  • Inverleith Park – close to the Botanic Gardens, this off-lead friendly space offers views over the city and lots of room to roam.
  • Portobello Beach – Edinburgh’s seaside suburb is just a short drive from the city centre. Dogs are allowed year-round and will love a run on the sand.

Dog-friendly activities and attractions in Edinburgh

Wondering what else you can do with your pup while you’re here? Try these dog-friendly things to do:

🏰Edinburgh Castle (outside areas) – while pups aren’t allowed inside the castle buildings, the Esplanade is open to all and offers one of the best photo spots in the city.

🛤 Calton Hill – a short but rewarding climb with panoramic views and room to roam. Dogs are welcome throughout.

🍻 Dog-friendly pubs and cafés – try Holyrood 9A, The Scran & Scallie or The Black Ivy – all allow four-legged guests.

⛪️ St Giles’ Cathedral – four-legged pilgrims are welcome inside this place of worship. The warm welcome’s linked to a story about John Knox and his friend, who was saved by a dog.

🚶‍♀️Guided city tours – a few local operators now offer dog-friendly walking tours of Edinburgh – ideal for learning about the city’s history with Fido in tow.
