In 1687 Prestonfield House was built for the Lord Provost of Edinburgh, Sir James Dick. The architect was Sir William Bruce, who designed a compact mansion with a harled exterior featuring curved Dutch gables and exposed stone details. Inside, some 17th century decorations are retained, including leather panelling, tapestries and painted wood panels. The house is now in use as a hotel.
