Our School
Belhaven Hill is a leading UK boarding & day prep school in East Lothian in Scotland, offering children aged 4-13 the very best start in life.
What makes for a best friend?At Belhaven, we believe that your child's school should encapsulate all of the attributes of a true companion: to be caring, loyal, tenacious, full of energy, and ready for adventure.
Here, in our 20 acre parkland campus perched above the beautiful Belhaven Bay, children discover themselves, form lifelong friendships, and build the inner strength they need to explore their world with confidence.
Welcome to a place where childhood is celebrated, individuality is cherished, and every day is an adventure.
