We enjoyed our stay at Fair Rigg Guest House, Bowness-on-Windermere, Cumbria LA 23 3JB - Fair Rigg is run by a delightful couple who serve a great breakfast. Easy walk into the village and well situated to visit surrounding area. Go to www.smoothhound.co.uk to see this B&B as well as many others. Sandy |
In Edinburgh, I can recommend The Travel Inn (City Centre). The rate is ~60GBP/room. The hotel is located ~10 min walk from the west end of Princes St. Gardens. My husband and I stayed at this hotel for a week in May/04. It is a basic budget hotel but we were pleased with it and would return in future.

I strongly recommend the Castle View Guest House in Edinburgh and the Dorian House in Bath. Do a search on this website for more information. Both have websites (google for them) and should provide you with adequate information on rates.

And for the second time (thank you Fodors)...
I agree about the Travel Inn in Edinburgh and the Ibis and the Grassmarket Hotel are in the same league. There's a new Express by Holiday Inn that's getting a good name. On Skye, we enjoyed the idioosyncratic Greshornish in January, but I believe it's changed hands since then |
Watched some reviews of Greshornish on tripadvisor.com. Seems the service deteriorated after the changeover.
I have tried White Heather and Braibhaigh, both are full. Checking with Rosedale Hotel now. What's your comment on this? Any other advice for similar price range? |
The Rosedale's fine. Rooms are oddly shaped but clean. location is super- looking over the Harbour. It's not cheap, but.
