Easter holiday in Edinburgh area
While traveling with our 15 year old son we stayed the weekend in this lovely cottage on the property of Victor an Carina just south of Edinburgh. The hosts are showed wonderful hospitality and the cottage is comfortably set up to sleep three (or four). Great attention to details of all we needed for a comfortable stay including notes for outings in the area and for getting to Edinburgh by bus or train. We definitely want to return to this beautiful cottage with wonderful hosts.

This is a gem of a cottage. The bed was comfortable and dark at night. Living room comfy and the kitchen has everything you could need to cook for yourself. Victor was a friendly, helpful host and just at the end of the phone. Check in was so easy and parking on site was so safe.

Kitchen Garden Cottage
Our stay was wonderful. The cottage was quaint and comfortable, beautifully situated, far enough away for peace and quiet yet close enough to enjoy the Fringe Festival and all that Edinburgh has to offer. We also enjoyed nice hiking locally through historic Lasswade. The hosts own top notch restaurants in Edinburgh which ought to be enjoyed while there. We found public transit to be quite good, though coming home late at night required a little extra effort. Next time we’re in Edinburgh, we’ll definitely check on the availability of Victor and Carina’s cottage.

Lovely cottage
Lovely clean cottage, lots of nice touches E.g. provisions to get you started tea, coffee, milk, dishwasher tablets, toilet roll, kitchen roll, bathroom toiletries. Good quiet location with parking. Quick responses from host when communicating. 10 min drive to station (with free parking) with train to Edinburgh taking approx 20 mins. Would recommend.

The cottage was comfortable, cozy, tranquil. Easy access to roadways and sites. The family who owns the cottage also owns the Cannonball Restaurant just outside Edinburgh Castle. That’s a must also!!!

Adorable cottage near Edinburgh
This little cottage is even better than the photos. We so enjoyed the nature walks right from the cottage, including to Rosslyn Chapel through sun dappled forest and sheep fields. It was an easy 15 minute drive to Edinburgh to see all the sights there. The owners are wonderful! We would definitely recommend this cottage.
