"It provided safe comfortable accommodation for ourselves and pets when we moved back to the country"

9.0

Self catered

The only thing missing was some milk. We arrived late in appalling weather and couldn't find a shop in the village and whilst I appreciate it is difficult to expect cleaning teams to organise fresh milk. A small jar of long life milk sachets would make a huge difference.

"A memorable place to stay in a wonderful location"

9.0

Very unique! Really interesting place to stay. And fabulous views from the roof! Very comfy sitting area. In our view, super value for money

Only one pillow each & they were a little lumpy

"Quirky decor, quiet location, beautiful stay"

9.0

Beautiful decor and exactly how it looks on pictures and description. We wanted to stay somewhere outside of Edinburg but close enough to travel in so this place was perfect. Lovely quiet location with costal walks nearby and the train station just a couple of minutes walk away. Loved the style and how quirky this place was. Lots of hearing (especially love the fire) so lovely and warm. Nice bottle of red waiting for our arrival which was lovely. The pool table was a great addition and could get tv apps on the tv if we wanted.

The bed wasn’t the most comfortable but everything else was exceptional.

"Quirky, chilled and enjoyable stay!"

8.0

Loved the quirkiness of the bunker. It's been refurbished well, and the hosts have generously thought of home comforts for the stay, e.g., tea, coffee, sugar, oil, condiments, etc. We were happy to have a stocked kitchen with utensils to aid our stay. The bedroom and bathroom were very spacious! The bed was comfortable and warm. The hosts were very attentive and provided clear instructions for check-in. The views from the roof of the Amroury are beautiful. We took advantage of the nearby coastal walk too and roamed around North Queensferry. Great location! We were happy with our stay! It was very chilled, which was exactly what we were looking for.

I can only provide minor issues. A big part of the lure of this place was the pool table for us. I get it's a bigger table as it also allows for snooker, but it was annoying to play at times because of the limited space (table is too big and too close to walls and artwork). This is a very personal issue, and I understand it might not be an issue for others. The extractor fan in the toilet connects through to the bedroom ceiling, which was a tad noisy throughout the night. I don't agree with the damage fee required, (non-refundable £30 or a hold of £500 which is not explicit when booking - just states there is a fee). It's fair to have a reasonable deposit and have this returned on inspection afterwards, like many other places booked before. Or at least be clear on the cost prior to booking confirmation. It feels like this is just a way to make more money out of people.

"Excellent accommodation ideal location to explore surrounding areas!"

10.0

Excellent place to stay, quirky and stylish! Couldn’t fault anything. Central location with some lovely costal walks and the local train station is within 5mins walk if wanting to venture into Edinburgh. We would definitely go back!

Nothing it was amazing! The security check/ damage waver was an unexpected £35 addition to the cost as I’ve never been asked for this before when booking accommodation.

"Had a great time in the bunker, would book again in the future."

10.0

Fantastic place to stay for a few nights. We were able to get there no problem and had a very comfortable stay. Instructions on heating etc were really clear.

The only thing we thought was missing was a freezer! We bought ice and managed to keep it cold at the back of the fridge though.
