“Wonderful B&B”
Easy journey on tram from Airport and 5-10 minute walk to B&B. Jemima allowed us to leave our luggage so we could go and explore as arrived early.. Easy access to all the sights, lots of choice of restaurant 5 minutes from B&B. Free upgrade to a spotlessly clean room and en-suite. Jemima was the perfect host, amazing breakfast. Wonderful place to use as a base for a visit to Edinburgh.
Thank you.
“Perfectly located B&B, with sumptuous breakfasts, spacious rooms, and accommodating owners.”
Scott House, run by the friendly, helpful owner Jemima, is a gem of a B&B, located within easy walking distance of everything — New Town, Old Town, the train station, and the bus station. It is a direct, easy, inexpensive tram ride to the airport. Terrific restaurants are right around the corner. The B&B itself is a beautifully restored mansion, with spacious, high-ceiling bedrooms, wonderfully comfortable beds, and large, modern bathrooms, as well as an inviting common living room with a piano and other musical instruments. The breakfasts were superb and bountiful, prepared by Jemima’s husband, a trained chef. Coffee, tea, and cookies were provided in the rooms every day. Scott House was among the highlights of my absolutely delightful stay in Scotland and I cannot wait to return.
Stayed 2nights for tattoo couldn’t have stayed at a better place clean friendly and the best breakfast you could ask for wouldn’t hesitate to recommended to anybody close to local bars and restaurants but still quiet at night in comfortable bed
We stayed at Scott House for two nights on our anniversary trip. We booked the four poster bedroom which was just beautiful! The bed was comfortable and all the furnishings are just lovely. Jemima is a very friendly hostess and offered good advice for things to see in the city. The location is within waking distance of the Royal Mile and all that area has to offer. Breakfast each morning was cooked to order and there were also a large amount of cold items to choose from. Highly recommend this beautiful place!!
