“Stepping inside feels like a genuine journey through time, with its thoughtfully curated, almost medieval downstairs ambience and a bedroom that truly speaks of regal comfort. The spaciousness and meticulous design, coupled with the palpable sense of history, create an atmosphere that is both incredibly authentic and offers remarkable value for an Edinburgh escape. It's a peculiar venue, undeniably, but one that leaves a lasting impression of having stayed somewhere truly special.”
