Just spent 4 wonderful nights at this lovely annexe over New Year’s Eve period. Fiona is an excellent host and explained everything thoroughly about the property and the local area. The property is furnished to a very high standard and so comfortable you will love it. The pictures don’t do it justice Fiona also leaves a wonderful welcome basket with essentials in so if you arrive late you have no problems. It feels very safe down a private road and has on site parking within the owners land even better. Bus stop just across the main road makes it easy to travel into the city in about 15 minutes making it a perfect location. Thank you Fiona for making us welcome we will hopefully return.

Wonderful Place to Stay Outside the City Centre

A warm welcome from our host with milk, bread, biscuits and even cereal. Very welcome after our 6 hour journey. We felt part of the household without being intruded upon. Fiona has exactly the right balance for hosting. Three different buses to take you to different parts of the city within 15-20 minutes no wonder this oasis books up so quickly!

We were delighted with the stay. The place is very beautiful and clean. The owners had the detail of leaving us groceries to welcome us, very useful after a long trip. The property is close to Edinburgh's main attractions. With accessible transportation options, we used Uber to get around and never had to wait more than 5 minutes. If we were to return to Edinburgh, we would stay again.

Fantastic stay

We stayed for 5 nights. First a warm and personal welcome and welcome package with milk, eggs, jam, butter, bread, water, fruit and whisky. Then we noticed the cleanliness of the house: clean, equipped with safety such as fire extinguisher, fire alarms etc. Also all the amenities you have at home. And a fantastic comfortable large bed! The apartment is within cycling distance via a beautiful route to the city center (6 km) and to cycle to the sea (cremond beach). A quiet area with private parking. Highly recommended!
