Easily the best accommodation we've used in almost 4 years of travelling. Clean throughout, generous breakfast options provided everyday, safe and secure car park, beautiful building and garden and the rooms are perfectly comfortable for enjoying the stay.
The host was wonderful and friendly welcoming us to the city and his guest house, offering loads of advice and tips for exploring the city either on foot or public transport. Showed a genuine interest in our visit and made us feel very welcome.
The location is perfect as we enjoy exploring on foot and could take a leisurely stroll into the

Lovely clean guest house in the city centre of Edinburgh. Has it's own parking on a first come first serve basis but you can always park for free outside the street. Had a great stay but only let down by the rain the next morning and ended up going straight home instead of visiting the museums. It was our last stop over after finishing the NC500 route.
