The B & B
We are a private-house B & B offering two rooms in our late-Victorian family home. We are situated approximately 1.5km south of the city centre in a peaceful residential area, with Edinburgh Castle and The Royal Mile being an easy 25 minute walk past The Meadows and Edinburgh University. Or you can take a short ride on the city bus service which passes our door every 20 minutes. We have several excellent local restaurants which are always popular with our guests, within 5 minutes walk of the house.
The guest bedrooms are both on the ground floor, with easy access, and each has its own adjoining lockable en-suite shower room. Each room can use our WIFI, and is equipped with cable television, radio, tea/coffee tray and hairdrier. Guests are given their own house-keys, and have access to their rooms at all times. Breakfast can be continental, English, Scottish or veggy, and is served in the dining room, or on the terrace when the weather is fine. Please note that we are a non-smoking household.
The establishment is graded '*** ' for quality by the Scottish Tourist Board.
Your Hosts
Alison and Peter are mid-60s retirees. Alison was a music teacher, Peter was a software writer. Since getting the B & B going 15 years ago, Alison has trained as a psychotherapist, and now has her own practice. The flowers which greet you in the hall and bedrooms are her remaining contribution, while Peter does the B & B fulltime, and attends to the constant demands of a 130 year-old house.
