Built in 1840, Norton House has always provided a luxurious home for the families that lived there. Now, its understated luxury and beautiful surroundings create the ideal atmosphere in which to escape and relax. As you turn off the main road past the stone gatehouse and follow the long tree-lined drive, you’ll be in no doubt you have found a traditional country retreat. But you haven’t left the modern world that far behind. Just six miles away is the vibrant city of Edinburgh – Norton House offers the best of both worlds.
While the original house has marble columns, a grand oak panelled staircase and period furnishings you’ll discover other rooms that offer luxuries with a more contemporary style. This includes a choice of modern restaurants, with the intimate fine dining restaurant, Ushers, or the more relaxed Brasserie.
The choice of traditional or modern is also apparent in the guest rooms at Norton House. In the original house, all the rooms, including two suites, are furnished in the grand style of a traditional country mansion. In the rest of the house the rooms offer a contemporary haven in which to relax, where you’ll enjoy the highest possible comfort and service as well as such state-of-the-art features as plasma screen TVs.
The Victorian stable block at Norton House has been converted into a self-contained conference and business centre. There are 6 purpose built meeting rooms offering natural daylight and air conditioning. Whether your event is an intimate one-to-one or a theatre style presentation for 30, this is the ideal venue.
If you’re looking for an ideal conference venue far from the day-to-day pressures of the office, Norton House is ideal. Tucked away in the heart of the Scottish countryside, yet close to Edinburgh, the airport and major road and rail links, it is easily accessible from anywhere in the country.
Presentations, conferences, team-building exercises, and new product launches are all easily catered for, with a full compliment of conference and presentation facilities. There is a wide choice of rooms in the main house and the Victorian stables have been converted into a self-contained conference and business centre, with a further six meeting rooms, a syndicate room and a breakout area.
