The hosts were very nice, greeted us when we arrived, even though we arrived very late. They had some milk in the fridge for our morning tea and coffee which was very thoughtfull. After that first greeting we really didnt see much of them. Which was also very thoughtfull, we were in our little vacation world. They wer also very quick to respond to all communication. The cottage itself was very clean and very well kept. It had everything we needed. The directions for internet, trash removal, and transprotaion areound the area were all very clear and helpful. There were three of us. I stayed on the futon sofa and the other two had the bedroom. It was a very comfortable stay. ##### Comanchy Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Robin M.

The cottage is next to the owner’s house. There were two deliveries that came to ours instead of the main house and some workers at the main house. Because the bedroom looks out onto the driveway and main house it was not as secluded as I thought. But it was mostly quiet and there is a small private garden in the back. There was easy access to Rosslyn Chapel and other hikes and a nearby pub. We enjoyed our stay. ##### Robin M. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andy & Susie F.

The cottage was quaint and comfortable, beautifully situated, far enough away for peace and quiet yet close enough to enjoy the Fringe Festival and all that Edinburgh has to offer. We also enjoyed nice hiking locally through historic Lasswade. The hosts own top notch restaurants in Edinburgh which ought to be enjoyed while there. We found public transit to be quite good, though coming home late at night required a little extra effort. Next time we’re in Edinburgh, we’ll definitely check on the availability of Victor and Carina’s cottage. ##### Andy & Susie F. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aoife M.

We were taking part in the Edinburgh marathon festival. They were so accommodating and welcoming upon our arrival, Victor showed us around and was incredibly friendly. The cottage is beautifully designed and furnished - the photos don’t do it justice! There’s a lovely private patio which would be wonderful during summer, unfortunately we had a lot of rain. They had milk in the fridge for us and also some tunnocks teacakes which was lovely. The bedroom was comfortable and spacious for two and then the sofa becomes a flatbed in the living area - it is on the smaller side but still fine for two adults. There is a direct bus a ten min walk away into the city and Ubers for early morning departures for the races were also reliable. We would definitely recommend their cottage as a place to stay particularly if you want to explore the outskirts of the city and be in some nature! Many thanks to Carina & Victor! ##### Aoife M.
