Located in Edinburgh in the Lothian region with Royal Yacht Britannia nearby, Old fisherman's Cottage No 4, free parking provides accommodation with free private parking. The property is situated 3.2 km from Edinburgh Playhouse, 3.8 km from Edinburgh Waverley station and 4.3 km from Royal Mile. Providing free WiFi throughout the property, the non-smoking apartment has a hot tub.

The place is well furnished with such a cosy vibe. Just across the street, there are some amazing restaurants and store for fresh seafood where I could buy and cook my own dishes. Also there is ASDA in a walking distance. Plus a few steps to the bus station could get me to the heart of Edinburgh city. The tram station is a few minutes away if walking. Truly amazing place to stay! The host was super supportive and responsive with well thought way to support during the stay. I accidentally locked the door with the key inside the house. The host picked up my call so fast with instant well managed way for me to get spare key to get in the house.

Castle Gogar Cottage, a property with a garden, is situated in Edinburgh, 7.4 km from Murrayfield Stadium, 8.5 km from EICC, as well as 10 km from National Museum of Scotland. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 4.8 km from Edinburgh Zoo.

The 'Castle Gogar Cottage' is attached to Gogar Castle - and the hosts' home - and is located at the end of a picturesque driveway just off the main Glasgow Road, Edinburgh. As such it is a short drive to a host of local attractions, quality restaurants, bars, golf courses and sports venues. Despite having Edinburgh Airport as our immediate neighbour we were never disturbed by any of the aircraft operations. The quality of The Cottage's furnishings is exceptionally high and the presentation was of the highest standard. The Cottage is superbly well appointed with quality fitments, bedlinen, towelling and the like. The bedroom suites, bathroom and lounge are all wonderfully comfortable, well heated and delightfully cosy. The kitchen was very spacious and, again, extremely well appointed. Our host, Donna, welcomed us on arrival and quickly explained the layout and the attractions of the property. Donna was warm, engaging and considerate and her attention to the guests’ needs is flawless. Communications were speedy and helpful. The rain deterred us from using the outdoor patio but The Cottage's indoor facilities more than compensated for the dreary weather. We look forward to making a return visit as soon as we can and would highly recommend 'Castle Gogar Cottage' to all discerning visitors to Edinburgh.

    Very central property. A few minutes walk from every places of interest in Edinburgh. Very nice cozy room, charming and comfortable, what you would expect from an old building of this style. We enjoyed the little attention with the cookies’ box and the possibility to have tea or coffee. Julia was very helpful with any requests we had. Self check in was quite easy with the instructions provided in advance.

    We stayed at St Margarets on a mini break to see family in Portobello. The cottage is much bigger than it looks from the outside, very comfortable and super cosy. The kitchen is well equipped, we loved the Denby and Le Creuset touches !! Location was great , about a 15min walk to the beach and the centre of portobello with its shops and cafes. Local Coop a 2 min walk away at the top of the road. We loved the super welcome pack on arrival, it was very much appreciated thank you.

    The house is very elegant, every object, including the breakfast table lay out was exquisite, the fresh flowers, the candles, the pottery...May and David really went out of their way at breakfast time, plus they helped us with our heavy luggage and made us feel very looked after. We had the small room, that if you do not have much luggage is delighfully cozy and romantic. My friends  had room n.3 and it was simply perfect.  The location is the truly added bonus, not only charming and elegant but close to everything.

    The cottage is lovely. The kitchen cupboards are a bit tired compared to the rest of the property but that is just a small point. The cottage is fab and the sauna and hot tub are brill. The deer in the field were a joy to behold and the lights of the airport runway were spectacular at night.

There are a lot of place to sleep for a family or a company and on top of it spacious kitchen/living room with a fireplace. Dry wood to make fire was attached. Every little details tells us that owners love to have guests in their charming house.
