Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in East Lothian

The apartment is really bright and spacious and tastefully decorated. The living area and kitchen are perfect. The apartment has everything you need including a washing machine and dryer. Audrey explained everything very clearly to us when we arrived to drop off our luggage (the owners facilitated an early drop off before 4pm). In terms of improvements, the water boiler is quite noisy so if someone used the bathroom late, it could wake other guests. We would have appreciated shampoo in the bathroom - some of our party flew with hand luggage only with a small liquids allowance. We enjoyed our stay and it was convenient for the EICC, a 10-15 minute walk. The welcome breakfast pack was a nice touch. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, including Napoli-themed Pizzeria 1926 with delicious pizzas!

Great location. Easy check in. Very clean. Only downside was the room was warm and window only opens so far for safety reasons.

Our stay at Sophie’s was perfect! The studio flat was in the beautiful village of Culross and the surrounding area. There were amazing views and the flat was warm and cosy. The position was private but very accessible to the village itself. Fully recommend!

Family trip from NY, scouting for universities for our daughter. Our other daughter studies at Uni of Edinburgh, and lives on Simpson Loan - so we knew location was very quiet, safe but walkable to the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh within minutes. The apartment was superb. Clean and well appointed. Comfortable beds. Everything we needed. Sharon was easy to deal with - flexible on arrival time to meet our changing travel needs. Can’t recommend this apartment enough. Wanted to come back for 2 nights in early July for our daughter’s graduation, but it’s a 3 night minimum :- (( Simply loved this place, staying at the hotel across the street won’t be the same!!! Thank you for the wonderful stay.

Great location and an easy 15-20 minute walk to the Royal Mile and train station. The bus station is only a 5-ish minute walk. Comfortable beds and the washer/dryer combo was great and extremely convenient. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for everything.

Absolute home from home. This was one of the nicest Airbnb we've stayed in, and we've stayed in quite a few now! Gorgeous apartment; funky, quirky, cosy, clean, well laid out, so comfortable (sofas and beds!), we could have stayed another 2 nights! Leith Walk is 10 minutes away on foot, and what a cracking place. Loads of lovely places to eat, nice bars, grocery shops, the transport links are ideal; the trams literally pass right along this route and take you straight into the heart of Edinburgh. I would highly recommend this property. Thanks to Gary for providing such a lovely place to stay :)

It was the best accomodation I’ve ever stayed.

Well, I actually broke my foot. The first day I was there and she was very helpful. Accommodating me and my family with the remainder of our trip. Her place was very clean. I would definitely stay here again and recommend her place to stay. Thank you so much, Johanna.

Maria's place exceeded our expectations, and I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a pristine and cozy getaway. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by how immaculate and well-kept everything was. The cleanliness was top-notch, making the space feel fresh and inviting. The coziness of this place was truly exceptional. The decor was charming and thoughtfully curated, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Additionally, Maria was incredibly hospitable and responsive.

Our stay was amazing! Everything is very central to the flats location and easy access to book routes, grocery stores, restaurants and pubs. Gill was a fantastic host and would 100% book again.

This is a very recent high quality conversion of a basement apartment in a high end part of Edinburgh. For four of us; the two bed two bath was perfect. Spacious and comfortable. A short taxi from the action - if that’s what you want - but a nearby lovely walk through the Botanical Gardens to the lovely Stockbridge village which it’s hard, restaurants, bakeries and galleries The host Riccardo was super responsive and very helpful. Well located, quiet, comfortable and exceptionally clean.

Great place for a quick weekend getaway! Laura was more than helpful to us throughout our stay and was quick to help when we had questions! Would definitely recommend!

The flat is very comfy. It was clean and the shower is great. The location very good, with grocery stores, restaurants and other services at short walking distance. Liz is a very nice host. Communication with her was great. I highly recommend her flat!

Loved the apartment. It is compact but the two bedrooms provided for some space. Was a reasonable walk to the sighs like Arthur’s seat, the Meadows, Royal Mile, etc. lots of places to eat in the area.

we have just spent nearly 2 weeks in this lovely 2 bedroom apartment. we felt right at home. it was quiet at night so we slept well. the kitchen had all we needed to cook. the place was clean. the view of the sea was beautiful!!! my van was parked safely over the road. no issues with finding a space. town was a few minutes walk and there were plenty of places to eat. and the host was friendly and responsive.

We had a wonderful and restful stay. The location is perfect, remote enough to feel like a proper country get away but close to popular places like Holy Island and many beaches. The place is exactly like the photos, very nicely decorated, private with plenty of light and countryside views. Both double bedrooms have their own bathroom, comfy mattresses, and extra soft luxury linen. The single bedroom has no window or bathroom so bear that in mind if you need the extra room. But for two couples this is an ideal place. Kitchen has everything you need, lovely and open plan, a nice welcome hamper. Living room is comfy with Games, TV with netflix etc. Would happily stay again!

Peaceful place in a nice, quiet area. Duc was very responsive, kind and helpful! Thanks for your extra attention and checking in with the needs! Really recommend staying here :)

A perfect home from home stay to spend with family. Thanks to Jane and her co hosts for the kind welcome basket :) The house is beautifully presented, clean and spacious. The hot tub was a fantastic addition to an already fantastic house! We were fortunate with the sunny warm weather so also to enjoy the spacious garden. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would 100% recommend to travellers looking for a large property to stay in just outside Edinburgh.

Jamie’s place was great for a short stay. It was spotless, comfortable and had everything you needed. Would definitely stay here again.

We booked Susannah's property to host a family get together with people travelling from as far away as New Zealand. The property turned out to be perfect for the 5 of us but would have been just as perfect for 8. This property is clearly someone's home, it has a completely different feeling to many of the antiseptic business properties that we have stayed in before and I felt this was entirely positive. The decor is great and the facilities even better with 3 large bathroom's offering great showers. The location was perfect for exploring Edinburgh as it was well served by the excellent bus system with the tram available for longer journeys. It would also be walkable to the centre of town but we chose to save our energy for exploring. We never failed to find parking nearby when required but chose to leave our cars in the free park & ride carpark that was accessible via a £2 bus. I cannot recommend this property too highly and would definitely return again if numbers required.

Kamil, was a fantastic host. As I was his first long stay rental he outlined his rules. Respect to privacy but also sociable and volunteered to take me with him when he did grocery shopping or going for take out meals. His place felt like a second home, and asked me before going into the room I rented if he had to access items stored there. The keyless door lock and outdoor camera made me feel secure. With the kitchen I had my own cupboard space as well as space in the fridge and freezer for my food, as well as instructed me in the use of the cooker and washing machine ( different from Canada).

This is my second time staying here, and I always enjoy my stay at Ishbel’s place. The price is good. The location is good, too. It’s very near bus station. Ishbel is very nice. When you stay at this place, make sure you set alarm clock on your phone, because the room and the bed is soooo comfortable that you may have difficulty to drag yourself out of the bed.

What an absolutely gorgeous place. We were there during a really cold spell but the house was so lovely and warm. Gorgeous furnishings. Very spacious even with all the Christmas decorations - the place felt very festive. Not too long a walk to get into town or to catch a tram but we used taxis due to the weather and there was never a problem getting one. House was pristine and the decor was great. Bedrooms spacious with very comfortable beds. Paige responded to my messages within minutes. I would definitely recommend people to stay here. Yes - it’s more expensive than some places in Edinburgh - but you get what you pay for and here you get true quality and comfort. The photos are very accurate …..what you see is what you get.
