WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

From the USA, What a wonderful place to stay! The location is excellent: with just a short walk to bus stops you can be in the city center in 10 minutes or at Leith in 20 minutes. Margaret cooks and hosts a delightful breakfast, but also offers a mini-fridge, sink and a micro wave to do ones own cooking if preferred out of season. Quite a delightful arrangement, with a separate entrance shared by two ensuite apartments. The neighborhood is lovely and has a post office, restaurants, laundry, grocery and pharmacies within a 15-20 minute walk or 5 minute taxi-ride.
Margaret is very responsive to her guests, is a lovely hostess, and a wonderful person. She will make sure you are provided for and will give you space as needed. A plethora of information is available on tourist sites, maps, bus routes, etc as well as information on Scotland in her house. Truly a homey environment where one can tour or rest as needed. Thank you Margaret for taking such good care of me! Blessings!
