Hilary is very experienced at hosting. She tucked us under her wing when we arrived stressed and helped us to settle in & unwind. Hilary also helped us to plan trips around by providing us with very useful information. Her place is in a very scenic area, both Duddingston Village itself and the views of garden & Arthur's Seat from her windows - I had to keep reminding myself that I was within the city. Hilary's location is very easily and conveniently accessible by city bus system, or a short trip by taxi. The lodgings are very comfortable, relaxing, spacious, up-to-date and with great natural light. Hilary herself is a interesting person to converse with. I highly recommend staying with Hilary.
