I had a great stay at this establishment. Everyone made me feel very welcome, the staff was sweet and attentive. The room was spotless and the bed firm but comfortable. A good breakfast was presented in the morning. All at a reasonable rate. I can recommend the Ardgarth guesthouse to anyone looking for accommodation in the Edinburgh area. The location... more

I came to the guest house with my daughter as a treat for her birthday. From the moment we entered the house, we felt welcome. Ursula was just lovely - very friendly and helpful. I had booked a twin room but we were fortunate enough to be given the Family Room. It was very spacious and absolutely spotless. My daughter... more

The overall experience at Ardgarth was fantastic. It was easy to find, simple to get to by bus, and the warm welcome given by the owners took the winter chill away! Nothing was too much trouble, and there was plenty of space, free internet, soup every afternoon, fantastic breakfast, 24 hour access...I would return to Edinburgh just to stay there... more

I came to Edinburgh with a very bad back, and not only did Ursula accomodate me by making my bed more cozy, she DROVE me to a chiropractor friend of hers in the neighboring town of Loanhead (thanks, Lynn!) where I was fixed up nicely! Every day there was a delicious breakfast served by her pleasant staff. Oh yes, I... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were made very welcome by our hosts Richard and Ursula. Our room was very comfortable and breakfast was outstanding. Situated in the suburbs of Portobello not far from the beach we were only 20 minutes from the centre of Edinburgh and on a good bus and night bus route. We would recommend the Ardgarth... more

Ursula´s B&B is more than a lovely location for staying in Edinburgh for some nights. The room was quite large and authentic. Everything, from the welcome with tea, shortbread and toffees above the atmosphere, the breakfast and at least the organisation of our staying was simply perfect. The B&B is located in Portobello, about one minute walk away from the... more

A wonderful location, it has the beach and promenade virtually on the doorstep and the location gave us an ideal opportunity to explore the fringe festival and be able to return to our relaxing guest house. The bus route to Edinburgh is 30 seconds away. All the staff were excellent, friendly and helpful throughout our 6 night stay. Our 5... more

Was the 6th year in a row for us to stay at the Ardgarth Guest House. The location is perfect for a trip to Edinburgh and the South as well. The rates are moderate and the rooms clean. Ursula and Richard are always helpful if you are looking for places to visit or a good restaurant around. Its just a... more
