Courtyard setting near airport-2
John, our host, and his son were warm and welcoming. The setting is serene and beautiful and very close to public transportation.

Studio @ Pirn Haugh
Accommodation as described. Clean and easy enough to find. Located roughly 5 minutes from the high st. Easy access to the local mountain bike trails.. Nice and quiet location. Iain answered all my questions quickly and was very helpful.

Beach ground floor flat - Edinburgh & Golf Coast
Mhairi's flat is well positioned to have a quiet place to stay a stones throw from the quiet end of the beach. There is easy access west to the city of Edinburgh and east along the coast by public transport . The bus stop is close by and a frequent service. Nice to stroll along Musselburgh harbour in the evening and enjoy a drink and fish and chips at the Ship Inn. Mhairi was a very kind and helpful host. We very much enjoyed our stay and our grand daughter who came to visit was fascinated to watch the black and white cat (definitely Postman Pats) and the squirrel who sat outside the door !!

Attached Apartment for up to 2 people
Lovely little place very handy for concerts etc at Murrayfield. The apartment is spacious and well maintained, very clean and comfortable - exactly what you need for a couple of nights. Janet is a lovely hostess. Very friendly and welcoming upon arrival. She was really helpful with directions to the stadium and recommendations for the area - the Brass Monkey pub is great. She added little extras in the room like bread and butter and jam if you like a bit of toast for breakfast it’s perfect. Plenty tea and coffee and milk in the fridge too. She also allows you to use her kitchen if you do want to cook anything - we didn’t use it but thought it was a very kind gesture given it’s her private home.

the wendy house- very quiet leafy private Edinburgh
A fantastic stay in Edinburgh! John and Gail are accessible, attentive, adorable and John likes to share good places to discover Scotland. A tip for future tenants: take the time to chat with John! The Wendy House is beautiful, a small cottage in its green setting. We're in love. The center of Edinbourgh is easily accessible by bus. Thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness, we are very touched. See you soon maybe! Camille and Pierre

Private Annex in Edinburgh's Corstorphine
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely annex. The location is perfect, just a 3-minute walk to a bus stop that takes you straight to the city center, and close to several restaurants and grocery stores. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, which made it easy to relax after a day of exploring. The annex was cozy and well-equipped with everything we needed. Our hosts were fantastic. They were responsive, flexible, and thoughtful throughout our stay. They even gave us a piece of delicious cake! We truly felt at home here and would highly recommend this place to anyone. Thank you so much Tatu and Fiona.

Beautiful Flat with Snooker Room and Jacuzzi Bath
We had a wonderful relaxing time in Galashiels. Aileen's property was just perfect to chill out. It was beautifully decorated, exceptionally clean and beds were very comfortable. The garden was very peaceful to sit in an enjoy a glass of wine. Thank you Aileen for a lovely couple of Days. Eileen and Vanessa

The Old Dairy at West bold farm
Lovely spacious space in a beautiful area. Ester and Angus and family friendly and chatty hosts, providing local knowledge and checking that all was OK.
Self-Contained Unit with a patio

The View at Mossbank
Colin and Adele were great hosts, and the accommodation was wonderful. My team stayed there while on a work trip, they all really enjoyed how peaceful the location was and how accommodating the hosts were. Many thanks!

Bright ensuite room sleeps 6 in our new Bunkhouse
We had a great time. It was really hard to locate the place first. But when I call the host they directed me really well. The area is really calm and quiet.

cosy rooms, 25 minutes by train to Edinburgh
I came to the area to attend a wedding a few miles away, and staying here was one of the highlights of my trip. Jonathan was an exceptional host—friendly, thoughtful, and incredibly helpful. When no taxis were available, he kindly drove me to the wedding venue himself, which was far beyond anything I expected or paid for. The accommodation was spacious, spotless, and beautifully organised, with every detail thoughtfully arranged. I had plenty of privacy and felt completely at ease throughout my stay. Thank you, Jonathan, for your outstanding hospitality and for being such a gracious guide to this lovely area. I truly enjoyed my time here!

Bright ensuite room sleeps 4 in our new Bunkhouse
Excellent! Would highly recommend.

Bunkhouse exclusive use sleeps up to 14 people
Just what we a big family needed on our way down south from Highlands. Everyone had a good nights sleep after a long journey. Definitely recommended!

Comfy one bedroom annexe adjoining owners' home
Judith's place was just what we needed for our 2 night stay. Judith had no other guests the night before and let us check in early which was really helpful. The fridge and cupboards were stocked with essentials but also with lots of extra thoughtful treats as well. So good to make a cuppa as soon as you arrive and have everything for breakfast,too. Although our stay was in June,it was a chilly and wet weekend so we appreciated a warm and cosy accommodation. The kitchen is well stocked with all essential equipment and coffee makers of your choice. The sitting room is cosy for relaxing. We appreciated being able to park the car in a safe place and catch a bus outside the door into the city centre. Highly recommended if you want somewhere quiet and peaceful but with easy access to Edinburgh. We would definitely recommend and hope to stay again.

Tranquil haven in award-winning house + EV charger
I really enjoyed staying at Kate’s place. The studio room and bathroom can be locked from both sides so you feel privacy from the rest of the house. It was a special place to stay - very well designed space. Comfy bed, amazing shower, freshly ground coffee a bonus!

Bright ensuite room sleeps 4 in our new Bunkhouse
Stayed here the night before taking part in the Northumbrian triathlon and couldn't have found a better place to rest the night before a big event! The room was spacious, the en suite bathroom immaculate and the beds incredibly comfy. I travelled with my family and we had a plentiful amount of space for 4 adults to relax in. The kitchen was complete with absolutely everything you could ask for. Both the room and the dining area had a massive TV which was perfect for watching the football on! The wifi connection was superb, which I was able to use to very quickly upload a YouTube video with and my family and I also had no problems all being connected at one time. The surrounding area is absolutely beautiful, a real hidden gem! There was also a brilliant outside seating area which was also home to very secure outdoor sheds, perfect for bike storage. I had such a perfect stay that I went on to win the race the next day! And for this price, I would have no hesitation to stay here again!

Brown Rigg Guest Rooms - Bellingham
A great place for our stopover en route to Hadrian's Wall. The room was spotless and well-appointed, the facilities excellent (kitchen, washing machine) and Susan was super-helpful and welcoming. Nice meals available locally as well. Would definitely come back again.

Courtyard setting near Airport-3
Highly recommended. The house was perfect, it had everything you could need. John was very kind to us and was flexible with our arrival as our flight was late. He explained everything we needed to know about the house and recommendations on how to get to Edinburgh.

The Den
Elizabeth was the perfect host. we felt right at home. She gave us useful information regarding the bus system and walking directions to the village. it was just the right distance from the city center. We would definitely recommend a stay at the Den.

The Annexe, Forkneuk Steadings. Near EDI Airport
A wonderful find, with super hosts!! We had a fabulous stay, thank you 😊

The John Muir Studio—JustB Retreat in Balerno
Amazing place with wonderful energy and terrific hosts in Karen and Geoff , wonderful souls that really couldn’t do enough for you.

Jack's Roost - A wonderful countryside stay.
Our second visit to Angela's house and it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lovely location with beautiful views. We'll definitely be back again. Thanks Angela

Kelso East Wing Maxwell Place ideal for 1-4, max 6
The East Wing is quaint, spacious and comfortable. David was a terrific host with plenty of recommendations and local knowledge. Lovely to find a welcome pack of fresh milk, bread, honey and eggs laid by David’s own hens. The location is ideal for a visit to Kelso with the central square only 5 mins walk away. WiFi was excellent. The only ‘watch out’ is that the shower is over a freestanding bath which is on a raised platform. No issue for us but might be a struggle for anyone with limited mobility.
