Spent a week visiting Edinburgh and surrounding area. Lovely accommodation ideally situated away from city centre but with easy access to bus links. Great to leave the car while visiting city centre. Hosts were lovely and accommodation was first rate, quiet location, spotless, and very well equipped, highly recommended.

The Annexe was perfect. Everything we could have asked for and more. Fiona and Alastair are lovely hosts and the space is very comfortable and suitable for longer stays. We wish we could have stayed longer than our 3 nights.

We stayed for 5 nights. First a warm and personal welcome and welcome package with milk, eggs, jam, butter, bread, water, fruit and whisky. Then we noticed the cleanliness of the house: clean, equipped with safety such as fire extinguisher, fire alarms etc. Also all the amenities you have at home. And a fantastic comfortable large bed! The apartment is within cycling distance via a beautiful route to the city center (6 km) and to cycle to the sea (cremond beach). A quiet area with private parking. Highly recommended!

A warm welcome from our host with milk, bread, biscuits and even cereal. Very welcome after our 6 hour journey. We felt part of the household without being intruded upon. Fiona has exactly the right balance for hosting. Three different buses to take you to different parts of the city within 15-20 minutes no wonder this oasis books up so quickly!

Lovely private apartment in a quiet neighborhood right on the bus line with shopping and restuarants nearby. The hosts were welcoming and helpful. The Annexe was very clean and comfortable, and we had access to the back garden, so we could choose to eat meals outdoors. We enjoyed our stay very much, and would come back if we got a chance to visit Scotland again.

Friendly hosts. Attention to detail amazing. Everything as described. Easy access to bus, clean, perfectly appropriated from a welcome basket of treats & flowers to the washing machine detergent. We needed to do laundry so we loved the amazing drying rack. Fiona thought of everything. Highly recommend.
