Perfect- that was our stay at Anne-Marie & Anita’s place. The location is perfect - being quiet and secluded and surrounded by trees with the river nearby. Yet it is quick and easy to reach by bus from the airport and a lovely long walk or shortish bus-ride into the city. Colinton is a lovely friendly village with the shops and restaurants you need.
The place is very clean and thoughtfully decorated. It is bright and airy yet also cosy when you need it to be. The shower is great - heats quickly and good pressure. Handwash and shampoo were provided. I slept really well - though if you like total black out do bring an eye mask as some light creeps around the blinds in the summer mornings. The little kitchen is well equipped and we had space enough to cook. No tv of course but it was nice to read more and we watched on my laptop when needed - WiFi is good.
The highlight: that hot tub. Just brilliant! So wonderful sitting there listening to the birds and the quiet. There’s space on the deck for a yoga mat too - so bring your mat if that’s your thing!
The thoughtful touches make a huge difference - the warm welcome, the little gift, the slippers, the robes… Anne-Marie & Anita are brilliant communicators and kind and welcoming hosts who think of everything and go out of there way to accommodate any need you may have!
