It was time for a walk, so off I went.
I walked right onto a bus and just like that I found myself in front of Dalkeith Country Estate. LoL! Well having made the trip, it seemed fitting to treat myself to a cream scone and tea.

I took the short trail to Restoration Yard which constitutes “a walk”. Right?
As I made my way to the restaurant, I noticed Dalkeith Palace in the distance. It looked so picturesque.




I have to say, the grounds are delightful.


The trail to Restoration Yard took me through a small forest and stream. There is something about hearing running water this time of year. It is so calming.

Upon arriving, I have to say, the whole place looked so inviting.


I headed straight to their restaurant. It was just what the doctor ordered!

I had the best view!

And the service and tea were perfect.



The visit ended by checking out the orangerie and walking the grounds.


I never noticed the totem pole on the grounds before.

It was also really nice to happen-upon one of their four-legged residents.
That was a good, leisurely walk and a lovely place to take photos.
