Open air gym, relaxed staff
Go running in the park or mountain biking in the Pentland Hills, unwind with a woodland walk or sit in the landscaped gardens and savour the breathtaking views. There is ample opportunity to exercise both mind and body at Edinburgh Technopole.
Over 95 per cent of Midlothian's population live in the area's built-up areas - the main towns and villages.
The Pentland Hills Regional Park, which extends to 9,158 hectares (22,600 acres), lies partly within Midlothian. Hillend Country Park, which contains the largest dry ski facility in Western Europe, also lies within the district. In addition, the Midlothian Council maintains major facilities at Vogrie Country Park (260 acres) and at Roslin Glen Country Park (51 acres).
In recent years, Midlothian has become an increasingly more agreeable place in which to live and work, and has a great deal for visitors and residents to enjoy. It offers all the pleasures of the countryside and at the same time, the culture and shopping facilities are only a few of the features available in this internationally acclaimed city.
