A Little Bit Of History

The new Glencorse Centre was established in January 2014 and is located in the northern edge of the village of Auchendinny, in the valley of River North Esk , a little over a mile north-west of Penicuik.

The facilities co-ordinator’s role was taken on by Kate Williamson in 2016. Kate lives locally and is passionate about bringing together & strengthening the local (and further afield!) community. She continues to strive to develop a much-needed community hub for the local people.

By providing a space for families to gather, a community garden, and a place for various sports and other clubs and classes to run, Kate and her lovely team at Glencorse have built a heart centre for the local community.

The Centre delivers a broad range of classes and group meet-ups for the community to attend, from the weekly Breastfeeding Cafe to our senior citizens weekly lunch. Annual community events such as the Halloween and Christmas festivities attract visitors from far and wide!

Two Pines Coffee Shop is housed within The Glencorse Centre, serving specialty coffee, cakes and pastries and a delicious lunch selection. They’re open 9-5pm, every day except Tuesday.

Our spacious main hall is available to hire for parties and many other events with access to a fully equipped modern kitchen. We also have a full-sized grass football pitch with changing and shower facilities for hire along with a 5-a-side all weather flood-lit astro pitch. Meeting/office space is also available for use. Please get in touch if you would like to rent space or facilities at Glencorse Centre. We are always looking to broaden our offerings here at the centre and welcome all!
