This was the second time we stayed with Isobel and Jimmy and we have no hesitation in recomending this intimate B&B to any one. Due to the fact that there are only 2 rooms there is the feel of staying with friends rather than as a paying guest and you are treated to 5 star treatment nothing is too much for this lovely couple . Rooms are large and comfortable with a fridge that is filled with drinks in the room . Beds are comfortable and rooms are quiet . There is a good bus service into town and plenty of very good restaurants within walking distance.

This place was recommened by my daughter who has stayed on two occassions.When we arrived Isobel and Jimmy couldn't get to the door quick enough to welcome us.We were shown into quite a large room and the only thing missing were the flowers.Sweets.fruit.muffins.tea.coffee.water and soft drinks were provided as well as a great Scotish welcome.The breakfast were superb and directions for bus routes.taxis.and places to eat were all provided.A great quiet place to stay for a good nights sleep after a long busy day.Would certainly return again.

A warm welcome, large airy rooms, comfortable beds and what can you say about those breakfasts. Isobel and Jimmy open their home to you as if you are already a friend. My parents and I stayed for two nights and it was a pleasure. It is a pleasant walk into the city centre and a delight to get back to the little haven in Blacket Place. Thank you so much.

I stayed at the Blacket Garden Flat with my husband and 4 month old baby and we had a great time. Isobel could not have been more welcoming and our room was perfect. It was big enough with our small baby that we could watch TV with her in the cot and not disturb her. We also really appreciated all the little touches in the room. The breakfasts are amazing and really set us up for a day of exploring Edinburgh. We loved the area the flat was in, a beautiful conservation area, and it is only a 20 minute walk into the city centre. We liked that it had more of a residential and quieter location. We would definitely recomment this as a place to stay to anyone visiting Edinburgh, and hope to visit again ourselves.
