It is positioned on the shore of Loganlea Reservoir which feeds Glencorse Reservoir, created in the 1800s to provide drinking water to Edinburgh. The area is rich in history and natural habitat and, reflecting this, the hills surrounding The Howe are designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The wonderful amenity offered by these hills, not surprisingly, makes the area popular with visitors, with the many trails providing plenty of opportunity for recreation including walking, hill running, mountain biking and horse riding. There is also trout fishing on Loganlea and Glencorse reservoirs available in season between March and October. The Midlothian Snowsports Centre is only 4 miles away and Glencorse Golf Course is located in nearby Milton Bridge. The historic town of Penicuik, once a centre for paper mills, is 5 miles away. The town offers a good range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, primary and secondary schools and leisure facilities. The property is extremely well positioned for access to the Edinburgh City Bypass (A720) and the city centre (12 miles).
