Northfield, Cottage Apartment
We loved our stay! Everything was clean and the bedroom were very nice with comfortable beds. The house had a very cozzy feeling to it. We didnāt had the right plugs for the phone charger and they were nice enough to borrow us 4. On the day of our check out we needed ice to put in the insulin container of my mom and they went above and beyond to get some ice for us, really thankful for that! Overall I would really recommend this place. Location was great too, close by to the beach and restaurants and just 1 hour away from Edinburgh

The Historic Dalkeith Water Tower
My husband and I stayed at the Water Tower for 3 nights. It is beautifully restored with so much attention to detail. In arriving we explored it in total awe. It is very comfortable and each bedroom has an ensuite toilet and hand basin. The bathroom is totally wonderful - especially having a bath. The sitting room at the top has a sensational view and is very comfortably furnished. As previous reviews have mentioned the Water Tower is well equipped and we were made very welcome by Susan and Gerry and greeted with homemade muffins and our choice of breakfast ingredients. The Water Tower is really well located, with Morrisons, a wonderful Indian Restaurant called Itihaas for dinner and an incredibly convenient bus service to Edinburgh (Ā£2 per ride - use your card on your phone to pay) - all just around the corner. The Water Tower is an incredibly special place and we would stay again if/when we come back to Edinburgh. Thank you very much Susan and Gerry for hosting us.

Stunning, quiet cottage + garage in city centre
Peterās mews apartment was a great place and perfect for our short stay in Edinburgh. Being located in a back lane it was quiet yet very close to the centre of Edinburgh and all its attractions. The property itself was warm and comfortable with everything needed for our stay. It also has the added bonus of secure, free garage car parking below the apartment. We would certainly consider booking again and will recommend to friends and family.

Central Holiday Cottage with Garden & Free Parking
A lovely quiet cottage in the middle of leith. Will definitely book again.

Claddagh
Loved staying here and Marie was the best host. The house was just outside of the main part of the city which made for peaceful evenings and the bus stop was less than a minute walk away and so easy to buy tickets. We did the whole week trip using public transportation and walked to the grocery store around the corner. Marie gave us all the information we needed on how to navigate the city what was nearby and even offered to call us our taxis on departure day. Marie was such a sweet and thoughtful host and the house was so cozy and comfortable for our party of 7 (2 adults 2 seniors and 3 kids 10 and under) if we ever have the chance to make it back to Edinburgh we wonāt stay anywhere else!

Free Parking-Close to City-3 Bedrooms
Everything absolutely as described. Felt homely and welcoming. Ideal for a few days exploring Edinburgh. Local supermarket 2 minute walk away was handy for milk and supplies.

Wifi, Private Parking, Netflix, Gardens
We had a delightful stay in this lovely independent home! It was spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and incredibly comfortable. Our host, Mike, was always quick to respond to any questions we had and went above and beyond to ensure our time in Edinburgh was truly unforgettable! Highly recommend!

Comfortable home in Rosyth, Fife
We had an amazing time at Anneās property. Anne communicated effectively with us from the moment we booked and was always to hand answer during our stay. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Anne; she was a wonderful host. The property was comfortable and extremely clean. Anne made sure that there was garden toys for the children to play with and appropriate books and toys in the house for them too. We will certainly be booking again. Thank you so much for such a fabulous stay.

Immanuel House - Luxury Modern Victorian Home 1872
The house was clean and spacious with all the amenities that we needed for a relaxing weekend. It was a nice touch to have toiletries available for guests, my teenage boys appreciated the huge television!

Spacious home near airport, Murrayfield and city!
Fantastic from start to finish! Great communication beforehand and on the day of check in with very clear instructions. The accommodation was exactly as described and spotless. Would highly recommend to everyone, had an amazing stay - 10/10. Thank you so much š

Murrayfield Gatehouse
Fiona is a great host and we loved staying there. Itās close to some great places such as, the Zoo and Murrayfield stadium if you going to a match. The old Roseburn railway walking track is 10 minutes away and is great way to explore the surrounding areas. Fionaās place is very comfortable and welcoming. We particularly liked the modern kitchen,as with 2 small children we were able to whip something up for them very easily. Taking advantage of the dedicated parking spot allows exploration further afield which found very convenient. Fiona didnāt impose but was always there if needed. We really liked this approach and we will definitely be returning for another long stay in the near future.

The Travellers Rest
Another great stay

Historic Georgian Entire House - The Royal Mile
Great place in a fantastic location, easy walking distance to everything the old town has to offer. The host was super responsive and very helpful throughout our stay, even letting us use the parking space outside the house for a few more hours after check out. 10/10 would recommend for a group trip to Edinburgh.

Stunning family home with garden and friendly cat
Eleanorās home exceeded our expectations in every way. Itās a cozy and welcoming space with a stunning garden and a fun outdoor trampoline that our kids absolutely loved. The location is fantastic, with plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance, making it easy to explore and enjoy the area. We also enjoyed the charming presence of the chickens and the friendly cat in the garden. They added a unique touch to our stay, and the neighbor took excellent care of them, ensuring they were no bother to us. Eleanor was a gracious and attentive host, making sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We highly recommend her home and look forward to returning!
