Ideal spot to visit the Bridges, and the little town of South Queensferry. Location fantastic. 15 min walk, or 5 mins drive to the Dalmeny train station for 20 min train ride into Edinburgh. View from the accommodation is fantastic.

We enjoyed the most amazing views from the lounge window. There was everything we needed for our stay. 2 minutes walk into South Queensferry where there are lots of lovely cafes and restaurants. It’s a short walk to the railway station to catch a train to Edinburgh. For anyone with an EV, dobbies garden centre is 10 minutes away with plenty of fast chargers plus a lovely pet friendly cafe.
