Family-friendly holiday rentals in Edinburgh Old Town

A very cosy, comfortable cottage with well considered, stylish touches that made it a thoroughly delightful place to stay. The beds were very comfortable, with thick toppers, plentiful pillows and luxurious bedding. There was plenty of hot water, and a good shower. Susan was welcoming and proactively helpful - both in providing additional cookware for a particular recipe I wanted to make, and in sourcing a new firestick for the TV so we could access Netflix. All in all, a lovely and peaceful haven for our mini-break in Scotland.

Great location. Clean and well equipped. Comfortable beds. Only short walk to grass market area, where there are plenty of bars and restaurants.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was immaculate which made it comfortable to relax. The hot tub was a highlight for the whole family. The water was sparkling clean. The location was picturesque & convenient. We had a great time cycling & visiting local attractions.

We stayed 2 nights at the beginning of our vacation in Scotland. The location was perfect for walking to all the best spots in Edinburgh. Michelle was the person I communicated with upon arrival, she was extremely helpful and very prompt in returning my texts. I would definitely recommend this rental.

Enjoyed our stay at such a creative and beautiful airbnb. It was a new experiencefor us staying in the countryside enjoying the sunset, BBQ, bathtub and feeding the animals. Sandy was a great host. She showed us around and helped us alot with our transportation. Much appreciation.

My boyfriend and I had a lovely stay in Maggies place. Cottage was exactly as described, hot tub was easy to use and absolutely amazing. A lovely and cosy little place perfect for a wee getaway. Local pub staff were also very friendly and food was yummy.

I absolutely loved this serene little guesthouse tucked away just outside of Edinburgh. It was very nice, clean, and functional for our family group. It was easy to navigate from there to surrounding areas by car. Ali was so personable and friendly! Truly a pleasure to stay here, and we would gladly stay again!

Dougal was always responsive whenever we had a question. He was extremely flexible in whatever we asked of him. One tiny tidbit is that the coffee maker is tiny, especially in a house of that size. I would suggest he buy a normal size coffee maker. But overall the kitchen was well equipped, the property was clean and comfortable and just a 20-minute drive into St. Andrews. Would definitely recommend it.

Had a wonderful time at Hanne’s place! Location was pretty unbeatable - it may look a bit far from the centre on Google, but it’s really only a 15 minute walk and it’s WORTH IT to be in Stockbridge. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfy!

Our stay at Roland’s Airbnb was an absolute delight! The location was perfect - incredibly walkable to all the tourist spots. The bed was super comfortable and the space was very cozy. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Fantastic location, close to plenty of interesting shops, bars, pubs etc. Central to everything we visited and we walked everywhere once we got into Edinburgh itself. Flexible on check-in which was much appreciated. Recommendations made and helpful.

We had a lovely stay and were blown away by the location. It is directly by the Holyrood palace which wasn’t even on our list of places to visit but quickly became a favorite and walking distance to all the major sights! Deborah was a wonderful, responsive and very accommodating host. This place had everything we needed and was surprisingly quiet for being in the middle of the city.

Craig and Holly were extremely responsive and went above and beyond. They even ordered us a second booster seat highchair for our two babies. They had a healthy supply of toys for the children, and the house was very baby proof. The flat is beautiful, close to everything (pubs and restuarants), and just overall so peacefully to be in. It hosted 7 adults and two children very comfortably. Each room was very soundproof so it made it feel like each couple in each room could truly retreat into their own space. Overall, just a great a great experience overall with the hosts, the space and location.

A fantastic location, right in the heart of the Grassmarket area. This flat is roomy and comfortable with a very modern (and well equipped) kitchen and bathroom. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

All good. Great location. Thank you.

Great place in Edinburgh! It is a little ways from the main downtown but that’s a good thing since the royal mile is way too crowded, loud and crazy. There are restaurants, coffee shops and a grocery store super close. The apartment is spacious, beautiful and comfortable!

We had an enjoyable weekend break in the Lookout at Pitmilly. Excellent standard of accommodation and facilities and a wonderful setting, convenient for exploring the Fife coast. Would highly recommend.

This apartment was perfect for our family of 8. Great location with many restaurants in the area. Easy access to bus service for city center. Facilities had everything we needed. Perfect place.

A beautiful home with access to a private pool, great play park and beautiful views. Very clean and staff very friendly!

We had a brilliant weekend in this lovely accommodation with great facilities. As a family group, including 3 teenagers and a disabled grandad, the accommodation was ideal with a lovely large open planned kitchen/dining/living area, four big ensuite bedrooms (one on the ground floor) and a separate bathroom. We found everything we needed in the kitchen and the large fridge freezer would easily have coped with supplies for a longer stay. The upstairs bedrooms had a luxurious feeling to them. The beds were all very comfortable and the ensuites were well fitted out with good walk in shower cubicles. The downstairs bedroom was smaller but still a good size. The shower had a high threshold for anyone with mobility problems but non- slip bath mats and suction handrails were supplied as soon as we mentioned disability. A shower stool would have been a welcome addition. There was plenty to occupy us without leaving the complex. We enjoyed making use of the sports facilities and the walks.

What a lovely stay, everything we needed was at hand, there were no worries for the whole duration of our stay, deffo come back with these guys

Lovely host, very amenable and flexible. I booked for one day and ended up booking another day because of the place and surroundings. The host went out of her way to get me refunded the extra days cleaning fee. Would definitely recommend. Only had one bad point which is there was a spiderweb above the bed. Overall lovely host, lovely home, and beautiful area with lots to do and explore.

We had a lovely week at Morton of Pilmilly. The staff are very helpful. The accommodation is first class, very clean and comfortable. Thank you Morton of Plimilly

Absolutely beautiful, well-appointed flat. Fits all the of the amenities you could want into a lovely space that is walkable to different parts of the city. Would absolutely stay again!
