This is a gem. I can't think of a place I felt more at home and where I enjoyed every single thing about getting back "home" (not to the hotel). I mean it is the home you would like to have. The bed sheets are amazing, the beds are super comfortable, the room has style in every detail yet it... More

What a great find. Wallace was so very hospitable and a kind host. This is not a place for those who like cookie cutter hotels or who like anonymous faceless experiences. It is the warm friendly welcome from a skilled host with a wealth of knowledge and interests. This is a fun area with all of life going on outside... More

We stayed here for easter weekend and loved it - Wallace is a great host and his home is gorgeous and full of cool furniture - the location is handy with plenty of nice restaurants and pubs in walking distance. The accommodation is lovely - we stayed in a beautiful big georgian bedroom with ensuite and woke to a delicious... More

What everyone else has written is true! Wallace has a wonderful place and he himself is a fabulous host. My husband and 15 year old daughter and I shared a large room with a large en suite bath in late June 2012. Wallace assisted in so many ways (including getting up late to greet us as our train was delayed... More

Wallace and his nicely designed B&B go together like tea and biscuits. Together, they just click. Wallace is a charming gent who, upon your arrival, is ready to welcome you with a glass of red or prosecco. He then makes sure to make you feel comfortable. Armed with interesting stories and not shy, he makes breakfast interesting over a choice... More

What can I say about Wallace that hasn't already been said? He dealt with my plethora of detailed queries before arrival, he recommended perrrrfect places for lunch and dinner...he was convivial, utterly charming - even more so once he overcame his shyness :). The large bed was beautifully adorned, the room charming and elegant, the shower room was bijou but... More

After a late change in our circumstances meant a change to our wedding location from Santa Barbara to Edinburgh, we needed to find somewhere perfect to stay before our wedding day and subsequent few days. We wanted something a little bit different, somewhere unique and bespoke and relatively small, a bolt-hole where we could get ready for our big day.... More

I found Wallace through a magazine article on the Art House and decided to visit rather than book into an hotel. What an inspired decision! The Art House is comfortable and unique, a trawl through Wallace's own life and loves as a global traveller and career as a designer. He directed us to a fantastic local fish restaurant (one of...

My husband and I took my parents to Edinburgh for the weekend and we stayed at Wallace's. He was welcoming and interesting. He made our visit to Edinburgh so much fun! Our rooms were spacious and decorated with fresh flowers and chocolates in the mornings. Showers, beds, books in the rooms, linens and every detail of the rooms were well... More

I've just returned from a trip to Scotland that included a stay in Wallace's Arthouse in Leith, the old port section of Edinburgh that has lots of history as well as great restaurants like Martin Wishart. Wallace's rooms were comfortable, clean, and had all conveniences. Walace was most hospitable, but not at all intrusive. And breakfast was lavish, delicious, and... More
