Staying at Hilary’s place was an absolutely amazing experience for both of us! Her little house was clean and cosy, her dogs were perfectly friendly and well-behaved, the breakfast provided (containing of, among other things, homemade jams, yogurt and bread) was delicious, and the view from the window in the bedroom was great to wake up to!
The house is located close to all the best nature spots so we would start each day with a hike in the hills, which led us directly to the historic centre of Edinburgh! If you don’t fancy a hike, you can still get to the centre by foot in 30 minutes by walking around the hills, and the views will still amaze you.
Hilary provided us with a lot of helpful advice on where to eat and what to do – we tested almost all of her recommendations (pubs, restaurants, monuments and museums) and were satisfied each time without fail.
Thank you Hilary for hosting us – we are looking forward to coming back!
