prebooking for edinburgh for late march
 
my husband and i will be in edinburgh from march 28-30. we were wondering if we needed to book ahead to get a b&amp;b or guest house at that time. we had hoped that there would be availability as it not peak season.<BR>would it be advisable to make reservations for those dates? or is it safe to arrive and &quot;wing it?&quot; we appreciate any and all input. <BR>thank you.

As sheila says - you will have no problem finding a place to stay. However - if you want to stay in a specific property you should book ahead. <BR><BR>If you are flexible and can stay in any sort of place - that's one thing. But if you've found a wonderful B&amp;B you think you want, that is something else.<BR><BR>The ONLY places I always book ahead are London, Dublin, Edinburgh, and Paris. Not because you can't get rooms at the last minute - but because I usually want to stay in specific areas or have a set price range.
