About Heriot
Heriot is a quaint village nestled in the Moorfoot Hills, southeast of Edinburgh, and is part of the Scottish Borders region. With approximately 150 homes spread across 50 square miles of predominantly moorland, it offers a unique rural environment. The village is mainly accessed via the A7 road, although it previously had a railway station until the line was closed in the 1960s. Despite a 2006 initiative by the Scottish Parliament to reinstate the railway, Heriot remains without a station, making planning applications in the area particularly relevant for any potential transport developments.
There are currently no active flood warnings for the Heriot area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Heriot a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
