📌 Pathhead, Midlothian
★★

Vogrie Country Park is one of the Central Belt’s quieter parks, and all the more pleasant for it. Expansive areas of grass surround Vogrie House: a baronial mansion built by Perth‘s town architect in the 1870s, and now housing a cafe. Apart from lounging around on the lawns, attractions include an adventure playground, miniature railway, bright rhododendron walk (best in late spring / early summer) and miles of woodland walks – including a footpath link southwards along the Tyne Water to Crichton Castle.
