Wonderful B&B and location

Wonderful stay. Hosts were so friendly and helpful. Wish we had stayed longer. Room was very comfortable and quiet country location but only 12 minutes to the airport. Would never have guessed you were that close.

I cannot rave highly enough about our stay! It was outstanding. One of the best places we have ever stayed. Welcoming, sweet, clean, comfortable, beautiful. I wish we could find some way to make it be our home base for the rest of our travels in Scotland. James was lovely and all our food needs (vegan, GF, vegetarian) for 4 people were thoughtfully accommodated. I can't say enough good things. Just ACE! Unforgettable stay. Thank you!

The perfect place outside of Edinburgh.

Parkhead House was such a wonderful place to stay. James and Angela are terrific hosts - friendly, helpful, and professional. The property is spacious, comfortable, and equipped. The setting is magnificent - an idyllic countryside retreat that is just 15 minutes from the airport or Edinburgh. We would absolutely return, and I highly recommend it to anyone else.

A gem. My family and I spent our last night in Scotland in this beautiful place. The owners are the sweetest human. The house is absolutely beautiful. The deer and sheep land behind the house in this magical Scottish valley is breathtaking. The food perfect. The bed comfortable. I wish we had spent way more days in this little paradise. I absolutely recommend.

Beyond our wildest expectations.

An absolutely superb b & b, possibly the best we've ever stayed in. The hosts have thought of everything, from the dedicated gadget charging stations to the comprehensive in-room consumables. It's in a peaceful location on the edge of a country estate and we were able to watch the deer from our room. No matter how hard we try we cannot find a single fault with this accommodation. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed.

Stayed overnight while travelling through the area. Fantastic B&B! Lovely room with great view. Breakfast was great. Host helpful - he told me about facilities and the area, and helped out a fellow guest whose plans had changed. Photo is of the sunrise from the field directly behind the building.

Best B&B Ever

James and Angela have a beautiful B&B in a fabulous location. It is spotlessly clean, very welcoming and friendly. James makes an excellent breakfast. They really make their guests feel at home, even allowing the kitchen to be used. Definitely coming back! We even had sheep and deer grazing in the back.
