Frequently Asked Questions About Run Free Dog Field - Eskbank Field, Dalkeith
Yes, the Eskbank Field in Dalkeith is a popular choice for reactive and nervous dogs. Because it operates on a private hire basis, meaning you and your dog have the field entirely to yourselves, there's no risk of surprise encounters with other dogs or people. Owners we hear from include those with rescue dogs who can't be fully trusted off-lead, Huskies with selective recall, and anxious dogs in training. The solo-use format gives both dog and owner during off-lead exercise sessions.
Sessions at the Eskbank Field start from around £7 per 30 minutes, confirm current rates when you book. Many local owners consider it reasonable value, especially when sharing a booking among friends: we've heard from groups of four to six dogs splitting the cost weekly. Given that you're hiring the entire grassy field privately, plus access to amenities like water, shelter, a dog shower, and play equipment, owners tell us the cost is worthwhile for the freedom and control it provides.
The Eskbank Field offers a practical set of amenities for your visit. There's fresh water on-site, a shelter and picnic table where you can sit and watch your dog explore, plus poo bags and bins. A dog shower is available if your pet gets muddy, helpful given the field can be a bit soft underfoot during wetter months. Play equipment is provided for dogs that enjoy agility or enrichment, making it easy to add variety to your session beyond simple off-lead running.
Yes, you can bring up to eight dogs per booking at the Eskbank Field. This makes it ideal for professional dog walkers, multi-dog households, or groups of owners who meet regularly. Owners we hear from in Midlothian often share bookings with friends, one group of four to six dogs visits weekly, splitting the cost while still enjoying full privacy. Because it's solo hire, your group has the entire field to yourselves for the duration of your 30-minute (or longer) session.
The Eskbank Field is an open grassy field. Owners tell us it can get a little muddy during wetter months, particularly towards the end of winter, though there's still plenty of grass cover at the far ends. The natural grass surface suits most dogs, from small breeds to larger, energetic dogs like Huskies. The dog shower on-site is a useful feature if your pet picks up mud during their session, and the spacious layout means there's room to roam even when conditions are softer underfoot.
