Great place for family visit
This was a very comfortable place for us to stay with family members, with lots of interesting places to explore within walking distance. Also a very nice place to hang around and be inside together in the rainy weather!

Incredible location, wonderful host
Magnus was a wonderful host, and his place has so much charm and character. We enjoyed the library, garden, and proximity to Holyrood Park. We were there during the Fringe and Edinburgh had an amazing energy. Magnus' place is close to everything but also just off the beaten path. A perfect stay!

Hidden Gem
Beyond our wildest expectations. This home is charming, warm, easy to relax, and a perfect place to use as a base camp for exploring a wonderful city. The location is hard to over hype, as you are staying in the entrance to the wonderful park on one side, and the city on the other. The host was tremendous to work with, and made out stay so incredibly easy and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place in Edinburgh.

Picturesque Cottage near Arthur’s Seat
Fantastic location, cozy and eclectic cottage with lots of room and nice personal touches. Easy walk to Old Town, New Town, Uni and enjoyed morning walks at the base of Arthur’s Seat. Fully stocked kitchen that we used each day. Nice to have two full bathrooms.

Lovely house in a great, quiet location
The location of this house is great; you are on a quiet street looking out at one of Edinburgh’s beautiful hills, but you’re within walking distance of everything you’d want to see in the city. The house itself provides everything you’ll need to be comfortable in a very cool-ly decorated space. Magnus is a great host, would absolutely stay here again.

This is a really cool place to stay that is so close to everything! Only a half hour walk to Edinburgh Castle with great places to see in between! We did not find parking near so we had to pay for nearby parking. I would highly recommend this home if you are visiting Edinburgh.

Wonderful Experience
We were so fortunate to have found this home. We really enjoyed our stay. The location was on a very quiet street and was about a 20 minute walk from many of the major tourist sites. We enjoyed cooking some of our meals in the kitchen which had all of the equipment that we needed. The home was clean, comfortable and cozy and Magnus was very responsive and helpful.

3 Days in Edinburgh
Magnus was magnificently accommodating, allowing us to store our luggage before/after check-in/out! The house is beautiful and my adult children all discovered their love for piano-playing. The location is amazing with the city on one side and the Holyrood park out the front door. I would highly recommend staying here and appreciate Magnus’ hospitality!

The (too short) stay I spent with my 5 friends at Magnus's house will remain one of my most memorable ones. During those few days in this house, I realized that the place where you choose to sleep during a trip is not just a simple "dormitory" but can change your appreciation of the whole journey.Magnus's house is ideally located, less than twenty minutes from the hypercenter of Edinburgh. But above all, it is warm, lively, and tastefully decorated. There are artworks everywhere, an incredible vinyl collection, and a great many books available.This trip completely turned me off from lifeless B&Bs with white walls, optimized for short-term rentals. And by the way, it's the only time in my life that I find the photos in a listing do not do justice to the accommodation.Just being able to rest in this house after a day spent outside really gave a whole different color and vibe to our trip.Every time I return to Edinburgh (which is a magnificent city, even in winter), I will definitely try to stay at Magnus's.

Wonderful Edinburgh Adventure
We had the most wonderful time in Edinburgh—4 perfect days staying at on the edge of Holyrood park near the distillery. This home is exactly as billed, very cozy yet spacious, art everywhere including the door knocker and drawer handles. All lovingly done. The location is perfect, whether you want to hike to Arthur’s seat out the front door or go exploring in the city. Our host Magnus was easy to communicate with and instructions were very clear. Would highly recommend!

Acerca de su propietario/a
Propietario/a: Mr Murray
Hi, I'm Magnus, I love being in Edinburgh but I mostly work overseas supporting refugees and people displaced by disasters and conflict. I like to be a host because we love our home and would like to share when we are not there.
Tragically, my fiancée and life partner Kasha Rigby died in February 2023 in a skiing accident in Kosovo. Since then I have dedicated my life to starting a new organisation to take forward our shared dream - of bringing sports and physical education to people stuck in displacement - refugees and people that have few options in life. We had found that sports can really change people's lives for the better if it is well coordinated. For this reason, I will be away from my home more that I'd planned, in the next few years.
More information about this organisation is available at www.movementinrefuge.org
Por qué escogió este alojamiento
I like the area where we live because we are so close to nature in front and vibrant city just a few minutes walk away. I can walk to the train station and use buses to get anywhere in the city.
I also appreciate the local community - there are often art, music or market events happening in our area. It is a mixture of family residents and students from around the world. There are so many small local shops, cafes and restaurants in our community we are spoilt for choice!
There is an Olympic-size swimming pool and great gym - the Commonwealth Pool - just around the corner. But the real wonder is to be beside Arthur's Seat, which offers hundreds of different walks or jogging paths. It's so close - just outside the front door and can be a great way to start (or end) the daylight hours.
Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial
I have collected furniture and carpets from around the world and a diverse, eclectic selection of art which we hope you enjoy.
The back garden is a real sun trap. We have built a nice wooden table there and there are seats for quite a few people, we think this really makes this property unique. In summer there is often light there till quite late, so it's nice to relax and eat there in the evening. We also enjoy having breakfast there in the morning sun.
There is a little fire pit outside - and a wood burning stove in the sitting room upstairs. Feel free to take some dry firewood from the left hand shed in the garden. There should be fire-starting lighters beside the sitting room fire place.
