We were lucky enough to book a room here for a weekend over New Year's. The welcome was warm, the breakfast was top notch, and it was great to get to know Gillian and Rita. It was wonderful feeling so near to the city center (10 min walk) and yet be surrounded by the beautiful meadows with a view of... More

I would say this is a traditional B&B, and all the better for it. A lovely, Georgian house overlooking the Meadows, means you have a tasty breakfast with a view across the park to the Royal Mile. Step out the front door, and it is a 10-15 minute stroll through the trees to the heart of Edinburgh. 15-30 minutes to... More

Breakfast were fabulous with a wide variety to choose from and plenty of it. Rooms were spotless and beds very comfortable. Gillian was so charming and has a wealth of information to share. The only place... More

Our visit to Edinburgh was made extra special by staying in Gillian Charlton-Meyrick's lovely house. Having arrived on the night sleeper train we went directly to Fingal place for breakfast. The accommodation was very comfortable and the breakfasts at the large polished table in the lofty dining room were delicious. The lounge with its high ceiling and big windows overlooking... More

I stayed at this gorgeous Georgian house for 3 nights in the end of May. It is located in the south side of Meadow Park, quiet and friendly neighborhood area, yet convenient to go to downtown Edinburgh. The house is very beautiful! I enjoyed looking at the period antiques and paintings. I had a nice twin room with ensuite bathtub... More

Mum & I started our trip around Scotland at 2 Fingal Place. Beautiful house in a great location only about 10 minutes walk into Edinburgh. We had a lovely twin room with ensuite bathroom. Rita the housekeeper looked after us as Gillian was away on holiday, and cooked us a great breakfast on both days. The only improvement would have... More
