This summary has been generated using feedback from guests who have stayed at this property

Guests have found the cottage in Edinburgh to be a delightful and well-equipped home away from home. It is praised for its cleanliness, cosy atmosphere, and convenient location with easy access to local amenities and the city centre. The property offers a quiet neighbourhood, comfortable beds, and a responsive service from the owners. While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the overall experience is very positive, with many looking forward to returning.

Cleanliness

The property is consistently described as clean and tidy, with guests sleeping well in the beds and finding the kitchen and bathroom to be very clean. One mention of dirty windows and a stinky dish towel in the washing machine slightly affects the score.

Location

The location is appreciated for its proximity to a well-stocked local co-op, park and ride into Edinburgh, and quiet surroundings. It is about 15 minutes from the city by bus, though some guests noted the need for multiple buses or Ubers to reach the centre.

Comfort

Guests have found the beds very comfortable and the house spacious, with a cosy living area. The central heating is efficient, especially appreciated during winter stays. However, the single bathroom was found to be a bit inconvenient for larger groups.

Facilities

The house is well-equipped with a washing machine, dishwasher, free WiFi, and parking. Guests appreciated the fully equipped kitchen and ample space. Some maintenance issues like jammed windows and a lack of toiletries slightly lower the score.

About this property

Situated in the small village of Danderhall, offering spacious accommodation for up to 6 people and graded 4star by Visit Scotland.

Situated in the small village of Danderhall, offering spacious Visit Scotland 4 star graded accommodation for up to 6 people. The property is an ideal base from which to explore not only the town of Dalkeith, just a 10-minute drive away, but also the historic city of Edinburgh which is half an hour away. The fabulous Firth of Forth coast has super beaches and lots to discover all the way from Musselburgh down to North Berwick and Dunbar.

Dalkeith is an excellent base for holidays with its Country Park making a fantastic day out for families and couples alike offering walks, cycling (bike hire available) fishing and bush craft activities and also operating as a working farm, the land is home to an abundance of wildlife including otters, badgers, hares and migratory birds, all of which can be experienced via a Ranger-led walk. For the little ones in tow, the Park offers zorbing and archery, not to mention Fort Douglas Adventure Park, a magical turreted tree house, complete with suspension bridge, climbing frame, secret tunnels plus knights, princesses and pirates.

The Scottish capital city of Edinburgh is of course renowned for its history and a trip to the Castle and Royal Mile is a must. Also recommended are the many art galleries including The Scottish, Scottish National, National Portrait and Modern Art galleries. For the green fingered, the Botanic Gardens, with their tropical and temperate palm glass-houses, arboretum and allotments offer a welcome break from the bustle of the city centre. Live traditional music takes place in many locations across the city throughout the week and food from all four corners of the world is readily available.

There are a number of fantastic beaches relatively close by including Cramond, Gullane, Portobello, North Berwick, Seacliff, Belhaven Bay and Silver Sands and easy access to the main roads leading to the Lothian, Fife and Border regions for anyone looking for a day further afield.
