The room is delightful, with an open fire in the bedroom which reminded me of past holidays in Stellenbosch, SA.
The traditional cottage is easy to find, a few minutes walk from the main road and a 20min direct bus to the city of Edinburgh.
In the private room there are home comforts such as tea & coffee, a varied book collection, electric heater and even an electric blanket in the bed! The surrounding air is so fresh that you can taste it, being at the foot of the Pentland Hills and the Water of Leith Walk. You have a modern small bathroom which is totally private from the main house. Claire gives you absolute privacy if you so wish. It's an experience of country life yet you are so close to the centre of edinburgh. I will definately be going back again!
