If only the ageing walls of Hailes Castle could talk! But seeing they can't, inquire if tours are available to hear a couple of its tales instead.

This fortified complex is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Haddington. But Hailes Castle isn't the only drawcard in the area. North Berwick Golf Course, Belhaven Beach, and North Berwick Law are some other worthwhile attractions close by.

It’s an auto check-in, no staff. Everything worked fine. Rooms are decent and is a suitable, inexpensive place to stay. Not much to do in the area, although the Persevere Pub is an excellent stop for a pint and food.

7.6/10 Good! (240 reviews)
Great location with busses outside the guest house direct to the City Centre every 5-10 minutes. On-site parking which is great also but limited. Its quite self-service as there isnt anyone to greet you are just left a key and have to phone them up when you arrive. Take your own towels as there were none left for me in the room which I found strange.
