The house is very comfortable and the location turned out to be excellent. We all loved starting the day with a walk through Holyrood Park to get to the centre of Edinburgh, and it was brilliant to be able start climbing up to Arthur's Seat literally just around the corner (with the bonus that you avoid the more frequently travelled routes starting from the car parks). When tired the buses were convenient too, though we managed to do most exploring by foot. The house had everything we needed, and some nice touches for the children with some books and puzzles they enjoyed -- not to mention the chocolate Easter eggs which were waiting for us! We didn't get to meet Jean, but had very good communication through messages so everything went smoothly. Highly recommended.
