Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Leith

We absolutely loved Kirsteen's place. The coach house itself was just perfect for our needs. Two spacious bedrooms, a large sitting area and kitchen, all in a beautiful neighborhood. We enjoyed walking to the nearby park with our dog, and we really enjoyed the nearby cafe and pub recommended by our hosts. The bus into town was super convenient. We highly recommend staying with Kirsteen for the perfect balance of tourist and local while visiting Edinburgh.

Melissa’s flat has been put together with so much thought, it is stylish, cosy, and comfortable. It is perfectly located to be walkable for all the main sites in Edinburgh and has lots of nice restaurants, coffee shops, and bars nearby (and Melissa provided a guidebook to help find the best spots). Melissa was incredibly accommodating and even arranged an infant cot for us. Would absolutely stay again!

From the beginning, the communication with Daniela and her team was excellent. The location is convenient to all the sites of Edinburgh, especially with a short Uber ride. The neighborhood was peaceful. It is not the most beautiful area, but it felt safe. The house was comfortable and our pups loved the back garden. The price was good, and we would be open to staying here again if in the area.

We loved the decor - so many lovely touches and were really comfortable. The 26 bus meant we were really well connected to Edinburgh and the pretty coast.

The location was perfect. It was in the less crowded west end area and less than a block to the bus stop (which we highly recommend figuring out the system so you can get around quicker). However, you can also walk to old town in 15-20 minutes time. There are many good restaurants and groceries within walking distance. The attached garage was an awesome perk since this was a stop for us in our long road trip.

We booked as a wee catch up/birthday and honestly it was lush, the farm is really stunning and the walks are just so peaceful. The property was spotless, looks amazing and you feel right at home from your first step in the door. The back garden is great if you have a dog (Fully fenced in) so we felt really relaxed knowing she wasn’t able to run off or anything. It is also walkable from Kinghorn station if you are okay with a country road still, obviously that’s not for everyone but we didn’t bring a car and it was fine! It was the calming chill vibes we wanted for our wee trip and it’s exactly what we got! We are planning our next stay already.

The Garden Cottage was everything we hoped for and more. The location was very convenient to Stockbridge and all of its restaurants and shops. There are numerous bus stops within 10-20 mins walk to grab a quick bus up the hill into New Town, across Princes Gardens into Old Town, or even for easy day trips like to Rosslyn Chapel or Portobello. Victoria was a very accommodating host and easy to work with. The cottage had plenty of space, was very well equipped for self-catering, and was stocked with all the basics you need (e.g., coffee, tea, sugar, etc.). Having a washer and dryer (as well as a drying rack) was a luxury we’ve rarely seen in the UK or Europe.

Cozy and homely apartment. Great location, walking distance from the docks with nice restaurants, well connected to the center of Edinburgh by tram.

Great location and beautiful surroundings! A perfect small apartment for a place to sleep while you explore Leith and Edinburgh. You’ll get a good booty burn every time you return home; 4 flights of stairs to the apartment door!

Stayed here for 4 nights on our girls trip and we just loved it! The location is ideal such a hidden gem. Directly outside the apartment is the bus stop that takes you directly into the old town/ city centre ( 20ish mins ) & the tram is just a 5 min walk away! As well as an Aldi 3 mins away with really cheap groceries. Directly outside the apartment are a lot of amazing places to eat and drinks and patios facing the water! The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful and safe & the kitchen was stocked with everything you need, as well as the bathroom! Super clean. The beds weren’t very comfortable but everything else was amazing! Washer + dryer was also broken upon arrival and we were expecting to do laundry so that sucked, but he offered compensation for dry cleaning. Overall, would most definitely recommend and will be back :)

Incredible spot in Edinburgh. Great location - close to so many gems. Beautifully decorated and cozy lodgings — would highly recommend. Immensely helpful hosts with awesome recommendations, too! Thank you so much again!

Beautiful place to stay , great location with nice quirky decor we all loved it . Would recommend to anyone.

This beautiful spot has been an absolute dream from start to finish. Gareth was wonderful to work with and went above and beyond to help us out of a tough spot at the end of our stay. The house was well stocked, we had everything we needed and felt right at home. Cannot stress enough how awesome this place is. Book this place, it does not disappoint, with a dream of a host!

Loved, loved, loved our stay at Charlotte’s place. Perfect location, close to everything but very quiet. Very grand interior, and spacious so it was easy to relax. Lovely bay window seat with a lovely view in the kitchen. Great shower/bathroom, super comfortable bed. Loved all the art and furnishings. Very happy we were able to stay here for our Edinburgh visit! Charlotte is also extremely lovely and a great host!

This apartment has a feel of royalty! Everything about it was just perfect from the utilities to the rooms! I felt so at home and comfortable, not to mention the incredibly helpful host! We had a hiccup with the door code and couldn’t get in but the host was swift and sorted the situation, I cannot recommend this place enough and me and my partner are already talking about another trip to Edinburgh and staying again! Thanks again for having us and providing an unforgettable break away! Many Thanks Jack.

I would highly recommend a stay with IIona for any stay in Edinburgh, the apartment is beautiful and very well situated within walking distance to everything you need for a lovely stay in Edinburgh particularly if you are seeing a show at the Playhouse. The apartment is very spacious and it was exactly what we needed for our weekend away, we would highly recommend.
