A wonderful stay in a calm and cosy place. Near the center and all the facilities you need. You can talk about everything with Naheed and her sons, and they can give you advices on what to do and where to eat. Had pleasant conversations with them.

Great stay with Philip. He really went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The bed and bathroom were very comfortable. The apartment is in the middle of the city. The tram and buses are a quick walk.

My son (11) and I were able to spend two nights in August with June and her husband. We felt completely at home and welcome from the beginning. June is a respectful, friendly and above all warm person and Iain is also a very nice person. The twin room had everything we both needed for our stay and the bathroom was great too, both very clean and well maintained. Everything was very comfortable and lovingly decorated. That's how you imagine Scottish hospitality. Thank you June and Iain. We would love to come back soon.

The stay with Jenni was fabulous.
The house, with a great garden, is lovingly furnished and in a nice neighbourhood. Jenni is a great hostess – on the one hand I had all the space and room I needed, on the other hand Jenni was always there and had an open ear, time for chats with a glass of wine and lots of helpful tips.
I would love to come back!

We had a lovely time at June's place. The room was cosy and equipped with everything we needed. She's been a kind and generous host. Both the bedroom and the bathroom were clean and tidy, and the buses to the city centre were at a short walking distance. We had no problem with transportation. Highly recommended! - Valeria & Andrea from Italy

Moira is a wonderful experienced host with a warm welcome & made me feel at home straight away. Plenty storage in the bedroom, comfy bed & a warm clean sunny flat where you can share the kitchen, lounge & bathroom freely. The flat has a beautifully framed view of the Castle from the dining area but of course that comes with stairs so not suitable for the infirm.

I spent such a good time with Lorraine and Bill sharing common passions : walking, music and chatting. They helped me to choose the best things to discover in Edinburgh.
