My family (8 of us) went over to Edinburgh for our US Thanksgiving holiday. We were a bit nervous about cooking an entire Thanksgiving meal in someone else's home, but Chris was a fabulous host. He made sure we have everything (and then some) so that the meal went off without a hitch. Chris was there to greet us when we arrived jetlagged on the first day and made sure we had everything we needed. He had bought some basic supplies for our group so that we had bread, croissants, flour spices, etc. and a few other items. When we had questions (like how to set the stove to right temperature) he responded right away. The flat was spacious and had great character. The flat was close to everything! We hardly ever had to use public transportation because almost everything was within walking distance. Would highly recommend this place and this host.
