We were delighted with our stay. The place is charming. We like to find places off the beaten path. It’s not your traditional hotel, it’s more of a bed and breakfast. The host has a great breakfast spread!

This is a great little place outside of the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh and was perfect for a short overnight stay. The host was very sweet and the accommodations were modest. The breakfast was great and the coffee was even better. There is also a great restaurant close by for dinner called The Spylaw. Highly recommend it.

Our room was large but felt cozy. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Our room had too much in it. 3 chairs and an extra twin bed made the large room feel tight. There was a bit of clutter in other spaces that needed to be cleared.

The owner made a plate of hot breakfast every day of my trip but it seems as though there were bed bugs in the room. I can't remember seeing it listed either, but there are 2 indoor dogs as well. The owner was very nice though and was always interested in knowing how I was doing and recommending activities! Initial spot on map was incorrect as it took me to a residential house, but there was a small parking lot on property.

The host was excellent and knowledgeable about Edinburgh. He put on a fine breakfast. Bus stop just around the corner. Lovely character home. The bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately someone was downstairs talking and laughing loudly til the wee hours. Kept us awake. But otherwise a good stay.

David our host was very warm, welcoming and hospitable. A lovely property in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood with lots of walks around. Easily accessible by bus from the city. A cooked / continental breakfast is an added bonus. The local village has an amazing pub (Spylaw) with very good food and friendly service and a good family run Italian restaurant ( Dante’s). My husband and I stayed in a very spacious en-suite double bedroom which was very comfortable. We would highly recommend this property.

David, the property owner, and the dining room were the two most interesting parts of our stay. David was very helpful with information and obliging. He loves his city. We wish we could give a better rating because he was so nice but several things made our stay somewhat uncomfortable. The property must have been lovely in its time. We do not consider our bedroom was adveryised as superior and definitely was not superior. It was just ok. The towels were stiff and rough and the quilt very lumpy. The bathroom has a new shower recess which an obvious upgrade. The toilet roll holder is unique and amusing. I have attached an image. Artwork really interesting and tasteful, which we viewed on the stairwell and dining room. We enjoyed Edinburough very much and it was an easy bus ride into the city. Bus stop close by as well as eateries.

Its a very old building with lots of character which I like a lot - perhaps not suitable for some who wants a "modern" hotel. The host is wonderful & the breakfast was fantastic!

David was a wonderful host, the room was large and comfortable, the breakast was tasty and filling. The beautiful, old house is about 4miles outside the city centre, but there is a bus stop a minutes walk from the property, which takes you right into Princes street. An uber was about £15. It was absolutely perfect for our needs.
