We had a fantastic stay here. Cottage was very clean, a lot more spacious than it looked on the photos too. Location excellent, minutes walk from a super friendly pub which we enjoyed a few meals at, a lovely cafe that do delicious breakfasts and cakes, the stunning Rosslyn chapel and the bus stop which takes you right into Edinburgh city centre. We’ve loved our stay at Rose Cottage and are already planning our next visit.
