We loved our stay. It was short, but the accommodations were very clean, comfortable, and charming. It was exactly what we were looking for and we wish we could have stayed another day or two.
We had a wonderful stay here. It's a beautiful location with deer and sheep around. The house was lovely, and our host was helpful on arrival and made a great breakfast for us as well.
James and Angela were just perfect!!! The cottage was cozy and close to a few Outlander locations which was a big deal to us. Conveniently close to great dining options as well!!!
Wonderful stay. Hosts were so friendly and helpful. Wish we had stayed longer. Room was very comfortable and quiet country location but only 12 minutes to the airport. Would never have guessed you were that close.
Great welcome from James and really helpful throughout. Comfortable, quiet and very well equipped. Lovely surroundings for walks. No hesitation in recommending.
James and Angela our hosts are just great people!
Had great conversations with them about the area and most helpful when planning our daily adventures
Breakfasts were fabulous “just like mom use to make”
More amenities than you can imagine
Highly recommend for anyone wanting a wonderful place to stay !

Had a lovely time during our one night stay after a long day of driving and sightseeing in Edinburgh. Very cute, comfortable place, great breakfast and walking distance to Lallybroch. Loved the country setting. Host was very welcoming. Really enjoyed it!
Lovely accommodation
Spacious and clean ... lots of fluffy towels
Friendly hosts nothing too much trouble
Rural and peaceful opportunity to relax
But also handy enough for the city we got the train into Edinburgh for the day
Lots of variety for breakfast all fresh and locally sourced produce
I cannot rave highly enough about our stay! It was outstanding. One of the best places we have ever stayed. Welcoming, sweet, clean, comfortable, beautiful. I wish we could find some way to make it be our home base for the rest of our travels in Scotland. James was lovely and all our food needs (vegan, GF, vegetarian) for 4 people were thoughtfully accommodated. I can't say enough good things. Just ACE! Unforgettable stay. Thank you!
It’s one of the best B&Bs we have ever stayed at. Just wonderful. We will be back.

The perfect place outside of Edinburgh.
Parkhead House was such a wonderful place to stay. James and Angela are terrific hosts - friendly, helpful, and professional. The property is spacious, comfortable, and equipped. The setting is magnificent - an idyllic countryside retreat that is just 15 minutes from the airport or Edinburgh. We would absolutely return, and I highly recommend it to anyone else.
A gem. My family and I spent our last night in Scotland in this beautiful place. The owners are the sweetest human. The house is absolutely beautiful. The deer and sheep land behind the house in this magical Scottish valley is breathtaking. The food perfect. The bed comfortable. I wish we had spent way more days in this little paradise. I absolutely recommend.
An absolutely superb b & b, possibly the best we've ever stayed in. The hosts have thought of everything, from the dedicated gadget charging stations to the comprehensive in-room consumables. It's in a peaceful location on the edge of a country estate and we were able to watch the deer from our room. No matter how hard we try we cannot find a single fault with this accommodation. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed.
Another stay in the home away from home when visiting Edinburgh, great service offered by the owner James, comfortable choice of rooms subject to availability, fully functional house to use with everything that you'd need and he'll even cook you breakfast 10/10, thank you and see you again soon 👍
Stayed overnight while travelling through the area. Fantastic B&B! Lovely room with great view. Breakfast was great. Host helpful - he told me about facilities and the area, and helped out a fellow guest whose plans had changed. Photo is of the sunrise from the field directly behind the building.
James and Angela have a beautiful B&B in a fabulous location. It is spotlessly clean, very welcoming and friendly. James makes an excellent breakfast. They really make their guests feel at home, even allowing the kitchen to be used. Definitely coming back! We even had sheep and deer grazing in the back.
