Stayed over for new years weekend- one of the best B and B's we have stayed in. It was clean, comfortable, provided good facilities and was a good sized room. Breakfast was really good - a selection of breads , fresh fruit salad, traditional scottish hagis and more. Great location, walking distance to town or easy bus access. A fantastic... More

I have stayed here several times on business trips and it is a joy to come here after a busy day of driving and meetings. The Daubly's are very friendly, always there to offer advice if required but never 'in your face'. I love the peace of the location and the walk into the City for a meal or a... More

We wanted a good B&B, but we also wanted to access the city. We did well, we thought. All was very nicely done, very clean, and very good breakfasts. The bus passes and the help in finding things was very appreciated. We would return again. More

The house is in a quiet location within easy walking distance of the city centre but also well served by several bus routes with stops nearby. The room we had was the king room which was spacious, comfortable and clean. Breakfast was a pleasure each day, with a variety of food to choose from. Caroline Daulby made us feel very... More

The room was so welcoming and very comfortable, very comfy bed and an immaculate environment. Breakfast is superb, a huge choice and everything so fresh and tasty. It made the trip... More

In a cold and wet February, the warmth and hospitable atmosphere of Ashdene House was an excellent experience. The rooms are beautifully presented, warm with every comfort and more. The owners are friendly and very attentive. Breakfast is wonderful, home made breads every day and great coffee. Location is ideal for all areas of Edinburgh and the free bus passes... More

Ashdene House was selected from an ad in the NTS magazine and we were not disappointed. The room that we stayed in was roomy bright and clean and looked freshly decorated. The Bed was so comfortable and the breakfasts were very enjoyable. Caroline was able to offer us a lot of useful advice for moving around the city using the... More

Having found this place on my last visit to Edinburgh, I had no reluctance to stay there again, and will again. What a nice change from the hussle of the city centre and everything is quite convenient. There is free parking on the street outside the house, some excellent restaurants round the corner, bus stop round the corner etc. They... More

Everything about the Ashdene House was a pleasure for us... elegantly appointed rooms, excellent location, FANTASTIC showers, gracious hosts and delicious breakfasts. Comes with free bus passes so you don't need a car for the city. More

My wife and I spent a wonderful week at Ashdene House during the first week of our Scotland vacation. We enjoyed the hotel's quietness, the hosts' friendliness, excellent breakfasts, and location near Old Town Edinburgh. A major bus line 200 meters away allowed us to visit Cramond, Royal Mile, Roslyn Chapel, Holyrood, and Arthur's Seat. Many excellent restaurants are within... More
