Margo is a responsive host and helped us with location details, transportation information and ideas for enjoying our stay in Edinburgh. Highly recommend the beautiful cottage and its location. It gave us a break from the busy downtown after long days of travel and seeing the city. The garden is an amazing part of the stay! Minutes away, there were grocery stores and Margo provided a lovely greeting basket that gave us things to enjoy after getting off a long flight. Awesome experience!

Margo's home was delightful! Really wish we'd had more time to spend there. Beautiful, comfortable, well-appointed and welcoming! One of our top private rental stays ever. We felt very at home and well cared for by the host, who communicated SO very well from the initial booking. We felt comfortable with no anxiety about getting there or getting in or whatever. It is a bit out from downtown EDB but public bus stops were close by. Well worth the extra travel time in and out of the tourist area. This place is everything it appears to be from the listing and more. Of course beds are a very personal taste, but found these to be quite comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed, though we mostly ate on the go. Pretty sure we could have made a full home cooked meal if we'd have wanted to do so .

Thank you for your feedback and so glad you enjoyed so much. We love that you have said it’s one of your top rental stays ever - that’s amazing. We are a little out of downtown - blend of rural tranquility and easy access to the City. Many thanks and we would welcome you back anytime.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful, well-maintained cottage. The sunroom was absolutely gorgeous and quickly became our favourite spot, where we spent many lovely moments having tea and enjoying quality family time together. The host was incredibly accommodating, quick to respond, and even allowed us to check in early, which we really appreciated. Getting into Edinburgh required a bit of extra travel, but we found it manageable by walking to the nearby Subway/gas station and taking a cab from there. My daughter and I walked the first day and it's a couple hours walk.Please note that the driveway is quite steep, and the access up to the cottage can be challenging, as there is no handrail. For this reason, the property may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues. Once my mother-in-law was inside, she stayed in, as it was challenging for her to maneuver the walkway/driveway.Overall, a lovely place to stay with a thoughtful and responsive host!
