Edinburgh's Stockbridge 'Colonies' is a charming 19th C neighbourhood of cottage-like flats tucked away adjacent to the Water of Leith river and a tranquil wooded area. My brief stay couldn't have been more enjoyable, from Mary's warm welcome to the cozy adequate room at the top of the stairs. Though my stay was only for two nights, it was an ideal location within the greater central Edinburgh area, ideally close to numerous cafes and eateries in Stockbridge's pleasant shopping street. I can certainly recommend Mary's wee room.
