May Scotland trip help
 
Just booked our air for 12 days in May, flying into Edinburgh. Staying 4-6 nights in Edinburgh. We're looking for B&Bs within an easy bus trip to City Center. Anyone familar with these?

Turret Guest House (Joppa)

Arisaig (Corstorphine)

Ardenlee Guest House (New Town)

Pringles Ingles (Morningside)

Braemar Guest House (Corstophine)

We'll have a car available for at least part of our time for some day trips outside the area. Any suggestions on B&bs?
Thanks

This in not exactly an answer to your question.
But, when we were in Edinburgh we stayed at 2 cambridge street and it was both centrally located and absolutely fantastic.
The hosts were extremely welcoming, the building was only a few blocks walk from the castle, the interior was impeccably decorated and wonderfully comfortable. Breakfasts were gourmet.
I dont know what your budget is but for 2 people it was 95pounds per night. It was absolutely worth the splurge for its central location and superior comfort.

Which one allows you to park a car for free as Edinburgh parking charges are extortionate & the traffic wardens could give Torquemada lessons

Torquemada?
