The owners gave us a very warm welcome and the property had a lovely ambience. We had everything that we needed for a lovely stay and a lovely touch were the complimentary chocolates and caramel wafer biscuits which we really enjoyed! In the morning we enjoyed a lovely Scottish breakfast which we’d highly recommend. Thank you very much Lorna & Dougie for welcoming us into your home, we had a really lovely stay.

    Beautiful and charming B&B, in the south of Edinburgh. Clean and comfortable rooms, fantastic hosts, excellent breakfast (continental with yoghurt, fresh fruit, toast, pastries, etc) and strong WiFi! You can walk into the city center in about 40 minutes but there are also frequent buses that get you there in a few minutes, would fully recommend. It's also near the hermitage park which is stunning and absolutely worth exploring.
