Housed in a historic building, the recently renovated Straven Guesthouse provides accommodation with a shared lounge and free WiFi. The property features quiet street views and is 100 metres from Portobello Beach and 5.7 km from Edinburgh Playhouse. Royal Mile is 5.9 km from the guest house and Edinburgh Waverley station is 6.3 km away.

It was an amazing experience to stay at Straven Guesthouse. I felt at home, the bed was very comfortable and the room was beautiful and warm. Breakfast was a whole variety of delicious dishes, home made and beautiful. The sea front is only a few steps away and I enjoyed walking along the sea promenade to the cafés - and walking along the sea shore. I felt looked after and cared for by Sinead and Chris. Thank you so much !!

With free private parking, the Aynetree Guest House is on a main bus route, with excellent direct access to Edinburgh city centre.

This Victorian house is well located for Arthur's Seat and the Palace of Holyrood. It has free WiFi and a garden.

A truly delightful, warm & inviting room in an older home that is decorated exceptionally well! I highly recommend the Aynetree Guest House!

Edinburgh city centre is a 5-minute bus journey from the Drumorne. Home to the famous Edinburgh Castle, the historic city centre also offers numerous shops, restaurants, and pubs. The Scottish Parliament is just 1 mile away. There are more than 7 golf courses surrounding Edinburgh, and Craigentinny Golf Course is 20 minutes’ walk from the guest house.

I stayed in a single room and it was spotless clean and very comfortable, tastefully furnished and well equipped with everything you need for a short stay. The guesthouse is located in a quiet neighbourhood (I even saw an owl), about 10-15 minute bus ride from the old town, two bus stops are just steps away. Abe is a wonderful host. I arrived late in the evening and then had to leave very early on two occasions and Abe was very kind and accommodating, he made sure to bring me breakfast the night before. I won’t hesitate to book here again.

Set 1.1 km from Butterfly & Insect World, Glenarch House is in Dalkeith and features a garden and a terrace. The accommodation is 2.1 km from the Dalkeith Country Park.

This double room features a bathroom with a bath and a shower. A flat-screen TV is offered.

We had the best Indian food at Bombay Lounge. We went to a local pub and although it was packed we didn’t enjoy the food all all. 1/2 price breakfast at Morrison’s grocery. We only did 2 nights, but would have stayed longer.

Beautiful Rooms in Edinburgh Cottage Guest House - Free Parking, a property with a shared lounge, is set in Edinburgh, 5.8 km from University of Edinburgh, 6.2 km from Royal Mile, as well as 6.4 km from National Museum of Scotland. This guest house offers free private parking, a shared kitchen and free WiFi. The guest house features family rooms.

With a supermarket next door and bus stop across the street, there could not be a better location. The USB ports in the kitchen and magnetic charger in the bed lamp are a relief for those who have no GB adapter for the cell phone.
