Lasswade Vacations from $1,453

We stayed in the deluxe 2 bedroom unit and it was very spacious and clean. The beds were comfy and the bedrooms had black out curtains. I sent a message in advance asking for the beds in one of the rooms to be separated and they were each made with their own duvet and bedding, which we really appreciated (they were separated a couple of inches which was sufficient for us). We arrived around 12:30 and were able to store our bags at the The Scotsman Hotel. I sent a message asking if the unit was ready and received a call around 2:00pm that it was ready. We were already up at the castle at that time, but it was nice of them to call. The kitchen was well stocked for making breakfast with a Nespresso maker, microwave, pans, etc. There’s a Tesco Express less than 1 block away where you can get stuff for breakfast. The unit had nice shampoo and body wash and they left tea, coffee capsules, creamer, sugar and biscuits. It’s located in New Town in an area of row houses about a 15-20 minute walk to Royal Mile. The plus side is this area is not touristy; local residents live in this area and there are restaurants and coffee shops close by. It’s also much quieter and calm than the touristy Old Town area. The downside is that the walk to the Old Town is not far but it is uphill. Overall, we enjoyed being in a calmer area and were very pleased with the spacious accommodations, the 2 bathrooms, and the comfy beds, and would stay here again.

I cannot recommend this place enough. My husband and I booked on a whim to be close to St Andrews without St Andrews prices. Upon first glance my husband thought I was crazy, he assumed it would be run down, and not offer much because it was not in the city center. He sure changed his tune on that once we checked in. The room was so spacious and beautifully updated while retaining a bit of historic feel. The quant and cosy “Hayloft Room” was perfect. The garden bathtub was such an amazing surprise and big enough to fit even a large gentleman. Not something my husband is used to finding. The all in one duty manager Debbie was sweet and accommodating. She worked so hard in every aspect to ensure a pleasant stay for all the guests. The chef behind the scenes is a hidden gem. I truly had the best meal I’ve ever eaten. The Inspire Chicken. My husband had the Haddock Mornay and loved his just as much. Generous portions, cold drinks, and hot delicious coffee. If I had known about this place I would have planned more nights in the area. I cannot wait for breakfast. Ps. I promise I do not work here and am in no way affiliated with this Inn. I’m an American on vacation. lol. See my other reviews.

It is worth letting folk know that the apartments are served well by the No. 11 Lothians Bus.

Relatively everything was just fine.

Very clean. Ideal location.
