My stay at Mhairi's was absolutely perfect. The room is beautiful and she even thought of providing an umbrella - much needed for Scottish summer. The location is great, the bus literally stops in front of the door. You can get to Princes Street, Victoria Street or even Bruntsfield (one of my favourite areas) within minutes; it's also just a couple of minutes to walk to the Botanic Gardens and about half an hour to Stockbridge and the beautiful Dean Village. Mhairi is the most friendly host I have ever met, always up to a little chat and giving great tips for places to visit. The art in the house and the room is beautiful. A special highlight is Charlie - her little dog - whom I already miss.
