The home is absolutely charming! Mary and Donald were so sweet and helpful, we felt very warmly welcomed. The room was a bit small, but the bathroom was large and comfortable! Breakfast was filling and fresh, it’s clear lots of love and care go into it. The only issue we ran into was frequency of buses and trains, but if you’re willing to walk for 20 minutes to the train station you can get into Edinburgh within an hour.

The house was built in the 1870's. It has lovely charm. They are so very kind and accommodating. My room was nice and clean and comfortable. There's bus stops near by that you can catch to the middle of town and a train station to take you to Edinburgh that's 20 minutes from the house. Everything is convenient. Highly recommend!
