Vacation rentals with a firepit in Edinburgh

A brilliant place to stay as a small family. It’s not slap bang in Edinburgh but all the better for it: blissfully quiet (you really cannot hear the airport), a genuinely beautiful garden to relax in, but just 5 minutes drive from the free park and ride, which is 20 minutes into central Edinburgh. And made all the better by hosting from Robert, who was super friendly, a genuine pleasure to chat to, but without being at all intrusive. Would firmly recommend.

Iona's place is gorgeous. It was more beautiful than we could have imagined. We were a party of 7, a family of 3 and a family of 4. Everyone had their own space. Her house is immaculate and very comfortable. You won't need a thing while staying there, the house has everything! With a bus stop right out front we could access all of Edinburgh easily. Portobello is a beautiful community and wonderful, peaceful place to return to after a busy day of sight-seeing. We loved St. Andrew's restaurant. Everyone in this area is very friendly and kind. We plan to return here next summer for sure. Iona was very helpful and kind, she was always available to contact if we needed her and very gracious and approachable. I can't say enough good things about our stay, it was our best holiday ever, much thanks to Iona and her beautiful home. I definitely recommend this location to anyone, especially families.

What a wonderful stay! Well stocked kitchen instruments for cooking at home, comfortable beds, lovely bathrooms with great water pressure and temp! Lovely area - I took a run to the park by the battalion which led to a run to the reservoir! Beautiful, didn’t want to leave!

Welcoming host who communicated well - clear instructions and responded swiftly to messages. Nice little house in a quiet neighbourhood that was 5-minutes from the train station (we were a 10-minute train ride into Edinburgh centre). Also, within a 15-minute walk of grocery stores and takeaways. Parking was available (if needed) and Edinburgh Zoo was close by too.

The house was clean and spacious with all the amenities that we needed for a relaxing weekend. It was a nice touch to have toiletries available for guests, my teenage boys appreciated the huge television!

Melanie's home was just as described and had everything we needed for our stay in Queensferry. Thank you for the use of your home Melanie, if it worked out again we would be happy to come back.

The house is most besutiful that was is shown in the pictures. It located in a nice place near the bus station to the center of a the town. Katie and his husband are great hosts

Sheila’s flat is in a perfect location in Portobello, very close to the promenade and the sea. We had a lovely few days stay there. The flat is most welcoming, comfortable and attractive with beautiful artwork on the walls making it a special place to stay.

Francois’ apt was perfect for us. Private, quiet street and comfortable beds. Very clean and as described. Francois was great at fielding the few questions we had while there. Lots of restaurants nearby; close to castle and stores. Very walkable neighborhood. A beautiful park is the next block over. We couldn’t have asked for more. Perfect!

We had a lovely stay at Ruth’s place during our weekend away in Edinburgh. Very cosy and clean, it was the perfect location close to bus and tram routes. Ruth was very helpful and responded quickly with our queries. A lovely host, thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home

Hazel’s place is a cosy homely spot in Portobello, close to all everything. It's a quick 40-minute bus ride to the heart of Edinburgh, which was super convenient. Hazel was always quick to reply and the place was peaceful, perfect for a good night's sleep.

Annes place was lovely and quiet, comfortable bed, warm room. Ideal for me as i was only there for one day. Lovely lady.

We were a group of 6 and the moment we walked into house, we all felt like home. A spacious home with an outstanding interior design, super cosy. The kitchen was well staffed (best kitchen we‘ve ever had in an Airbnb). For the first morning David and his wife left us everything we needed for a proper breakfast. Thanks again for letting us stay at your beautiful home 😊 Absolutely recommended.

We had a great stay at Sona and Tom's place. The atmosphere is quite cozy, the house well equipped (especially if you have children), and the location is convenient and easy access to public transportation. I would definitely highly recommend it!

We had a wonderful stay at Lotte’s cabin. It was exactly as the description, yet even more tranquil than we’d imagined. The cabin is beautifully designed, spacious, and the view from the picture window is incredible. It’s a location we felt honoured to be able to spend a few nights in. With friendly horses as neighbours and waking up to birdsong. We enjoyed the wood-fired hot tub both nights, and had such good weather we could sit out on the deck for dinner one night. A friendly Robin joined us too! Lotte was friendly and helpful via message during our stay. Highly recommend!

I loved everything about this place - the term glamping pod doesn't do it justice! Its so pristine and perfect location to Edinburgh for the Fringe too. Elizabeth allowed me to check in a bit earlier too which was super helpful. Not sure where else I'd get all that and wake up to cows grazing on the fields 😀

Wow!! The lodge exceeded all expectations! It was so easy to find and the clear instructions given by host made it the easiest check in. The lodge itself was beautiful inside and out and absolutely spotless. The bed was the comfiest bed I’ve ever stayed in!! The surrounding area is just absolutely beautiful and it’s so peaceful, we will definitely be returning and recommend this place to everyone! Thank you for the best weekend x

Such a beautiful cabin in the most peaceful and idyllic setting! The place was so modern and high spec, I’d stay again and again. The bath was a wonderful addition and we greatly enjoyed watching the lambs whilst in a steaming hot bubble bath with no noise surrounding us at all.

Everything was amazing 10/10 great communication with Elizabeth thank you
