The breakfast is amazing. I personally loved the fruit platter... More

This hospitable B 'n B is ideally situated to explore lovely Edinburgh. Heather is warm and friendly and makes you feel absolutely at home. Her rooms are well appointed, attractive and comfortable and her breakfasts, quietly prepared with the assistance of her husband, are delicious and sustaining. She arranged a 3.30 a.m. taxi to the airport for us and even... More

It was tstefully decorated, with all sort of details to make it very confortable (there were even two umbrellas, adapter plug, sticking-plasters, etc.) and whatever you need to have a tea or a coffee. And what to say about... More

We made the trip to Edinburgh for the Rugby weekend and read reviews about this b&b before going and I have to say it more than lived up to all the great reviews.
