The rooms are perfect. Large and complete and perfectly clean and modern. The rooms come without breakfast and there is a self service for check-in so not much service to rate. The location is about halfway between the airport and city, right at a bus stop from which you van het to the center in about 30 minutes. Not much to do or eat in the immediate vicinity though

We needed a last night hotel near the airport to catch an early flight out of Edinburgh. This B&B was cheaper than anything we could find that was comparable. It had four beds (we needed three) and a nice bathroom. We were greeted shortly after we arrived and made to feel welcome. Although our stay was brief, we were able to walk to dinner at a nearby restaurant and our private off road parking sealed the deal.

We definitely didn't expect such neat and quiet accommodation. Close to the airport and the bus to the city stops at the door. Recommendation!

I WOULDN'T recommend! I booked this place in February for a stay the end of August 2023, not realizing the distance to main attractions. I had my hip replaced and asked for a refund-the end of March due to the distance. …

My wife and I stayed overnight before catching a flight out of Edinburgh Airport. Received a very warm welcome and Michelle was very helpful. The room was generous for a B&B which was great.  …
