{{Use dmy dates|date=December 2016}}{{Use British English|date=December 2016}}Bonnington House is a 19th-century country house near Wilkieston, around {{convert|7|km}} west of the city of Edinburgh, Scotland. It is a category A listed building.^[1]

The house was built in 1622, and was the home of the Foulis Baronets of Colinton.^[2] Sir James Foulis, 2nd Baronet, served as Lord Justice Clerk from 1684 to 1688, taking the title Lord Colinton. Bonnington later passed to the Wilkies of Ormiston.^[2]

The house passed from the Scott family to Hugh Cunningham, Lord Provost of Edinburgh around 1702.^[3] It was said to have been doubled in size in 1720,^[4] but the physical evidence of flues and fireplaces does not support this. In 1720 the house was owned by Hugh's son, Alexander Cunningham.

In 1858 the house was completely remodelled in a Jacobean style.^[1] The house and its {{convert|100|acre|ha|adj=on}} estate was bought by the present owners in 1999,^[5] and in 2001 the house was refurbished by Lee Boyd Architects.^[2] Two new wings were designed by Benjamin Tindall Architects, granted planning consent in 2010 and completed in 2015.^[6] The grounds of the house have been developed as a sculpture park, now open to the public as Jupiter Artland.^[5]
