Return visitor, very happy to re-book.
This was a return visit, from my previous experience, I had no hesitation in booking again. This is what I would term as a good family run hotel/guest house, very comfortable, welcoming and with great service. Lovely breakfast. If or when I return to Dunfermline, I would book again.

Lovely stay, very comfortable and clean. The shower heat was very unpredictable, was very chilly. Breakfast was amazing, a suggestion, it might be nice to have some music in the background as it was a bit awkward and quiet feel like you could hear everyone's conversations.

Brilliant friendly clean hotel. Lovely people
Brilliant! Lovely owners nothing too much trouble. Beautiful big room. Huge bed and so comfortable. Very quiet. Breakfast wow! Really good quality cooked to order and huge! They don't do evening meals but the place just round the corner they recommended was lovely. Very reasonable good home cooked food. I can't recommend this hotel enough. I would give 10 stars if I could. Ample fee parking too. I would definitely stay here again if in the area. Great place

Full of character and value.
Excellent location for Edinburgh. Lots of parking and free WiFi. Big old house with lots of character. A few things are needing a bit of love and tender care but don’t let that put you off. No desk in the room I had but there is a large lounge with a bar. En-suite with TV, Tea and Coffee and the USB charging points are a big plus. You are made to feel very welcome and the breakfast is 5 star level. Will stay again without hesitation. Excellent customer service.

Good value for money but move the beds!
Superb breakfast (included in price) and nice warm room; all in a very quiet setting. Wi-Fi variable especially in room. Bed was tucked right in under the slanting ceiling with the result that it was impossible to sit up in bed (to watch TV or read), and a bit awkward getting in and out of bed. (As is usual in Victorian villas there is no lift.)
