Beautiful Traditional 3 Bedroom Apartment in Edinburgh
3.5 star property
8.0 out of 10, Very Good, 3 reviews
"Good for family (2 adults, 4 kids). Good location, 30 minute walk or 10-15 minute bus ride to the city centre. Clean apartment, some initial struggle with the front door key ‘technique’ but the video was helpful, could’ve done with a few more kitchen utensils / oven trays for self catering. Overall good, would stay again. "

Cosy cottage located 25 minutes from Edinburgh City Centre
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, 27 reviews
"Nice cottage in a quiet neighborhood a short drive from Edinburgh. The cottage is next to the owner’s house. There were two deliveries that came to ours instead of the main house and some workers at the main house. Because the bedroom looks out onto the driveway and main house it was not as secluded as I thought. But it was mostly quiet and there is a small private garden in the back. There was easy access to Rosslyn Chapel and other hikes and a nearby pub. We enjoyed our stay."

"We had an outstanding 10-day stay at Walstone Bothy. There were 4 of us older gents on a golf holiday (with tickets to the Open Championship!) and this was a perfect rental - great location, excellent space, and congenial hosts. The photos and description are all accurate - the bothy has been renovated and is in tip-top condition, spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, and all the amenities you need are available. Lots of room for the 4 of us. The location is great - in a rural area and very...

"Lovely place and nice and quiet to get a good nights sleep. It was perfect for the 3 of us as we were really using it to sleep as we travelled into Edinburgh which was quite close, only 30 minutes by train and the drive into town was quick to get to the train. Well located in that regard. Thank you!!!"

Aparthotel Adagio Edinburgh Royal Mile
3.5 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, 1,742 reviews
"Perfect location to explore Edinburgh, especially The Royal Mile and cross streets. Clean, comfortable, lots of restaurants and shops and sites to explore. Closer to Holyrood Palace end of RM, so a bit quieter in the evening than closer to Edinburgh Castle area. Only downside is it's quite small if you have more than two people, with only one comfy piece of furniture in the sitting area; we were a group of three adults, and the living room sofa served as a bed for one.
