Sarah and her family made us feel right at home. The room was lovely and bright and although it was freezing outside, with central heating and a lovely wood burning stove we were always very cozy. Coffee, tea, bagels and eggs were all left out for us which was a lovely surprise after the very early flight over! The buses went into the centre of Edinburgh very regularly and took only twenty minutes or so, so no hassle at all. The area of Portobello itself was beautiful also, I really loved that the seaside was only five minutes walk away. All in all, I had a fantastic time in Edinburgh and I greatly appreciate the chance to have stayed in the beautiful home of Sarah and her family!
