The Mavisbank Trust was formed in 2003 as a subsidiary company of the Edinburgh & Lothians Greenspace Trust to assure the future of Mavisbank House and its policies by spearheading the restoration campaign.


Mavisbank House is a hidden gem, tucked away between the Midlothian communities of Loanhead, Bonnyrigg, Lasswade and Dalkeith and is architecturally renowned as one of the country's earliest neo-classic houses as well as the very first Palladian villa to be built in Scotland.

Although Mavisbank is now in a derelict condition, and its once beautiful designed landscape is neglected and overgrown, the beauty, history and European significance of this 'A listed building make it worth fighting for, as potentially one of Edinburgh and the Lothians' most beautiful landmarks.
