Location lovely and easily accessible to bus into city and local village. The Spylaw Inn for dinner was fabulous and food delicious. Full English breakfast included in the dining room was also wonderful.

The property is 18th century and rooms are huge and decor is in tune with building. So close to bus route to city. Bus approx every 15 mins to centre. Buses back all through the nught but less frequent. David was perfect host, explaining how to get to bus stop, given main door key for easy access whatever time you get back. We went to tattoo so were back late. Great sleep, lovely huge bed firm mattress. Coffee and tea in room. Breakfast was excellent, full scottish breakfasr and cereals yogurts, fruit juice, toast and lovely coffee. Highly recommend this place. Not big hotel, nice guest house, perfect. Ticked all the boxes. Thank you David. Caroline and paul. We stayed om 8 august 25

The hospitality was wonderful and David is very helpful and friendly.
The room was cluttered and untidy, dusty and not looked after. The fridge wasn’t cleaned out from the last occupants.
The room was not able to be secured when we left the premises which made it difficult to leave our valuables.
A lot needs to be fixed to justify the price.

David, the owner, was very kind and explained everything to us. The area is very quiet and also served by public transport that connects to other parts of the city. I recommend it!

It was quite old which added to the quaintness. I had to call when arrived which ended up costing me. Wasn’t aware host was on WhatsApp until after
The host was lovely. Had a great breakfast as well

Wonderful stay in Scotland
This was the ideal place for my two week stay in Scotland. The location was perfect because it is within walking distance of my sister's home and close to bus stops that take you everywhere in the area. David was a delightful host and I felt very welcome and comfortable.

An amazing, quiet location , a beautiful old house with very good facilties. It made me and my 11 old son feel like in a fairytale, with a great contribution from the house dog and cat. Many thanks to David , for being a great host and for contributing to our rugby knowledge, that was amazing for a young boy that is discovering this beautiful sport , and enjoyed a very good game in the beautiful city of Edinburgh

Wonderful Hogmanay stay with attentive host!
David was a fantastic B&B host. Very attentive and provided a lovely breakfast on the morning of New Year’s Day. Easy to get into the city centre with a few regular bus options. Would recommend staying here!

The proprietor David was a lovely man. His breakfasts were tasty and delicious. Good B&B for an old-school stay. Old Georgian home so if you like a historic stay, this is it.
