Polton has places to explore by foot, bike or bus. Below are a selection of the varied Polton’s destinations you can visit with additional content available at the Walkfo Polton’s information audio spots:

Cockpen and Carrington Parish Church Cockpen and Carrington Parish Church is located to the south of the town of Bonnyrigg in Midlothian, Scotland. It is a congregation of the Church of Scotland. The current arrangement dates from 1975, when the two churches were united. The church’s tower is unusually tall for a comparatively small church and its design was copied for Kilconquhar Parish Church in Fife.

Melville Castle Melville Castle is a three-storey Gothic castellated mansion situated less than a mile (2 km) west-south-west of Dalkeith, Midlothian, near the North Esk.

Mavisbank House Mavisbank is a country house outside Loanhead, south of Edinburgh in Midlothian, Scotland. It was designed by William Adam, in collaboration with his client, Sir John Clerk of Penicuik, and was constructed between 1723 and 1727. The house was altered in the 19th century, but suffered decades of neglect in the 20th century. The interiors were gutted by fire in 1973, and the house remains a ruin.

Hawthornden Castle Hawthornden Castle is located on the River North Esk in Midlothian, Scotland. Man-made caves in the rock beneath the castle have been in use for much longer than castle itself.

Roslin Castle Roslin Castle (sometimes spelt Rosslyn) is a partially ruined castle near the village of Roslin in Midlothian, Scotland. It is located around 9 miles south of Edinburgh, on the north bank of the North Esk, only a few hundred metres from the famous Rosslyn Chapel. The castle is accessed via a high bridge, which replaced an earlier drawbridge.
