Sandilands House

Every detail seems carefully considered to ensure a comfortable stay. The hospitality provided is exceptional and goes above and beyond.

Breakfast great. Hostess amenable.

Great location, just a few minutes from Edinburgh by bus. The bus stop is within 5 minutes walking distance. The host was very kind and helpful with directions and booking a taxi for our early morning trip to the airport.

Location, breakfast and room were great! Enjoyed our stay!

A beautiful property and what made it even more special was knowing it was their family home once. The location was brilliant, 15 to 20 mins from Edinburgh airport and 5 min in a taxi into the city. Also, the bus stop is directly opposite the property, which was perfect. The hosts John and Maureen were fantastic, friendly with a fantastic sense of humour. By the end of our two night we felt like family. The breakfast was excellent,plenty to eat. John and Maureen make sure you are not hungry when you are staying with them. Me, my Sister’s and Brother haven’t laughed that much in years, staying with John and Maureen was a real tonic, we certainly found a real GEM staying with them Nothing was too much, outstanding all round and we will return

location was perfect was people coming with a car because yuo didnt have to negotiate city centre traffic yet it was still with in 30 mins walk or a quick spin in a taxi. Room was comfortable and clean and the area was quiet so we slept well. Breakfast the next morning was coooked to order and very tasty - John was a welcoming host and i would definitely stay there again.

Very nice gentleman owner

My companion and I loved our whole experience at Sandilands House – the room was beautiful and comfortable, breakfast was great, and the owner (John) was incredibly kind and friendly.

The location is great for Edinburgh city centre attractions

John was a great host, very welcoming and made us feel right at home. A top notch B&B, in a great location and very reasonably priced at peak festival time. Woukd highly recommend for a long wknd in Edinburgh!

Lovely proprietor who went out of his way to he helpful as we were unfamiliar with Edinburgh. He’d even bothered to write the bus numbers on the map in the local visitors’ guide. When I asked if he’d given me his own copy I realised he’d handwritten the numbers on each copy in the pile! The location is very good, with a bus stop just outside the property. The rooms were clean and very comfortable - a typical B and B except John has thought of all the things you’d expect to find in a hotel room.

Interesting quirky features

Place was great and John an excellent host. Only 10 mins bus / Uber to town and 20 mins to airport. Very quiet place.

Convenient and homely .

Very close to downtown. Bus stop steps away from the house. Great breakfast, John and his wife Maureen are lovely hosts.

Location Breakfasts Nearby public transport

Breakfast was excellent. There was absolutely everything you could possibly want to eat. John was an excellent host and a very interesting conversationalist.
