Excellent breakfast with wonderful host! Just what we needed to set us up for a lovely day with a magnificent view of the city.

Carole, the owner, made us feel so welcome and ensured that my partner's birthday trip to Scotland was special. The room is enormous, with a very comfortable bed, excellent shower, and amazing views across to Stockbridge and Leith. We've stayed in a lot of places (including some high-end hotels), and it was one of the best rooms we have ever stayed in. The location is perfect, very close to all the attractions of central Edinburgh, yet quiet as it is tucked away - just 5 minutes from the madness of Princes Street. Very handy for Haymarket Station if you fancy a trip to Glasgow, and also convenient for buses to South Queensferry & walks to Stockbridge and Dean Village. A great area of Edinburgh to be in. Carole's breakfasts are a definite highlight, as other reviewers have noted. Freshly cooked, with quality ingredients, and she will ask you in the morning what you fancy for the next day. Carole is also full of recommendations of places to visit in the area. I would definitely stay here again next time I am in Edinburgh. Thank you Carole.

The room does have a small wardrobe, but it would benefit from adding a chest of drawers or shelves/cupboard space for other (folded) clothing items. The coffee/tea making facilities which are just outside the room are a nice touch, but we would have preferred if these facilities were inside the room for convenience. These are both very minor points, it's one of the best rooms we have ever stayed in - especially the fabulous bed and shower.

The location is excellent and the house has a lot of charm. Breakfast was nice and the host made us feel very welcome. We were allowed to leave our luggage at the property until our departure and could use our room even after check-out time.

Our room was at the streetside of the house. The room was consequently noisier than expected (although still acceptable if the window was kept shut). We would certainly recommend the place (for people who do not mind climbing stairs and having no airco in the room) but feel that the price is too high (compared to other places where we stayed, which were a lot less expensive and also had wonderful hosts).

Carole was a very thoughtful and caring host. She helped us with our every need and made us feel completely at ease in Edinburgh. The building itself was amazing, with beautiful large windows and a lovely view of the city. It was easy to tell just how much care was put into decorating it. Thank you Carole for making our stay in Edinburgh much more meaningful. Wishing you the best!

We had a really lovely stay at Carols West end Townhouse. She is a wonderful host to stay with and the breakfast was superb.
