The Wendy House is, quite simply, a magical find. About 20 minutes from the heart of Edinburgh, it became our home away from home for five days. It is a truly unique space that has to be experienced to be fully appreciated. It is absolutely wonderful: comfortable and warm but light and airy. It is completely private and self contained. Despite the size, it never feels small, and the adjoining bathroom is particularly great. As others have mentioned, the stocked fridge is a lovely touch and much appreciated after a long day travelling.
We visited to spend some time in the city and experience the Edinburgh Fringe. The public transport connections in Edinburgh are fantastic, and we never had to wait more than 15 minutes for a bus to take us home, even after midnight. I would recommend anyone staying for a few days considers getting one of the weekly rider cards for £18, which gave us unlimited bus travel throughout the city.
John and Gail were first class hosts. When our flight was delayed and we had problems getting there, they were easy to communicate with and very reassuring. I cannot recommend the Wendy House enough.
