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 didn’t 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

Static Caravan Holiday Home
Lovely Thank you for having us :)

Static Caravan Holiday Home
A great place to spend your vacation, or just a few days to relax and get away from the routine. Very attentive host and great to negotiate with.

Northfield, Garden Apartment (3 bedroom)
I booked this property at short notice and the reason was because I saw that it had a good location and also a pool for my children to play in the water and that since I had a short time, I saw this as a good space, but the only thing is that the pool cannot be used in cold weather.... But in terms of being large, clean and tidy and having amenities, it is a very suitable place, just because I wanted to go to Edinburgh, which was an hour away. Most importantly, the owner was very kind and polite. He also lived in the property next door and was a very nice person. When we returned, our cat was lost in the garden and he helped us find it with great kindness and patience. I am extremely grateful to him, I recommend that you travel there for rest and accommodation.

Northfield, Garden Apartment (2 bedroom)
Booked Northfield as a base close to family as well as attending events in the central belt. House was perfect for our family, clean, tidy and lovely big outdoor space. Little added extras such as the loaf of bread, milk, butter and shortbread was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend and have already passed on to my relatives abroad who may wish to visit the area in the future as an ideal base.

Old Manse Road. House, Private Drive and Garden.
Mary was fast to respond to any issues that arose, we were in her property for 2 months and anything which required attention was seen to quickly. the house is in one of the nicest parts of town, I'd generally quiet and comfortable.

Castle View House
Heathers place is in a lovely location with stunning views from the rear garden, the property is equally as nice , clean and tidy and the kitchen is well equipped, would definitely book again

Kingsburgh Lodge Murryfield, close to city centre
Fantastic property. Great location. Very homely and comfortable with lots of nice thoughtful touches including fresh coffee, shortbread etc. Would love to stay again if it's not booked up!

Artists Mews House near City Centre
What an absolutely beautiful Airbnb. I loved my stay at Fiona's Artist Mews House. It is a peaceful and serene place to stay in a very elegant part of town. Artist Mews House has been beautifully architecturally designed, is tastefully decorated with lovely furniture and artwork and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. I was staying after work in the city and I really enjoyed having a night in, making food, doing some work at the kitchen table and then having a really great night's sleep in the super comfortable bed. This is a most definitely a 5* place to stay - it's no wonder it's booked up completely for the next few months. I really wanted to experience the river walk but sadly I didn't have time.

3 bedroomed near city centre
My family had an absolutely amazing long weekend at Charles’ home. Kenneth supported a very smooth check-in and was super friendly and responsive. I really appreciated that the hosts were very responsive and also transparent about the feasibility of staying in their home with a baby. The home itself was spotlessly clean, had a beautiful kitchen, and was very peaceful to relax while watching the river flow by. We will be back!

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 (£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.

Stylish Apt, Fettes Edinburgh. With Free Parking.

Pitcorthie House
My stay with Andrea was incredible. It was only one night, I was on my way up to north Scotland from Cambridge and the original place had to cancel due to frozen pipes so as a last minute booking I was so grateful. It’s a beautiful property and perfect for the price. Felt like a home. Thankyou again!

City Centre Georgian Townouse w/ parking
Great part of Edinburgh to stay within local restaurants bars and Stockbridge only a 10minute walk away. Great areas to go for a run also down to inverleith and botanical gardens.

The Travellers Rest
Good sized accommodation with a great garden. Fantastic value for money given 25 minutes train connection to Edinburgh, with trains running about every 25 minutes. Well worth driving through surrounding area with small towns nearby. The costal walk is highly recommended, beautiful views across The Firth of Forth with nice small beaches dotted along the way.

Entire Home. 3 bedroom house - 1 King, 2 singles
Great property, would definitely recommend it.

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!

Modern home situated in the heart of Dunfermline
This was a great wee base for visiting family and friends. Spotlessly clean, very quiet with off-street parking. Home was decorated beautifully and had everything you need for a longer stay. Loved the personal touches - host left a lovely basket of Easter chocolates. Kari was very helpful and easy to contact. This home is a short walk from Dunfermline town and Townhill Loch which offers lovely walks. Thanks for a great stay.
