Mhairi is the consummate hostess. Her hospitality and kindness really helped make my Edinburgh vacation a very memorable one. Her dog Hector is an adorable Labradoodle who is very affectionate and loves to give face and feet kisses if you so desire. Her home is spotless and wonderfully filled with her artwork which is in several different genres. The home is ideally located by a bus stop and three regular bus connections into the city - the 8, 23, and 27. Mhairi recommended some delicious dining experiences including Loch Fyne which is within walking distance of her home as well as Herringbone. I also tried Howies which is in Waterloo Place and is highly recommended in addition to Pibroch, a Scottish restaurant which is family owned and run located on Holyrood Road.
Day trips to places including the West Highlands, St. Andrew's and other destinations can be easily booked from Rabbies in Waterloo Place. Any of the busses outside of Mhairi's will take you within walking distance of the pick-up location. This was my first visit to Edinburgh, and I have fallen in love with both the city and Scotland. I highly recommend Mhairi's beautiful home. I can readily understand why she has Superhost status as she truly is one. Go raibh maith agat, a Mhairi! (Thank you -in Gaelic which is very similar to Scots Gaelic), I will definitely be staying with you and Hector on my next trip to the great city of Edinburgh!
