We stayed for four nights and had a lovely time.Angela and her family were very welcoming and friendly.
The house is beautifully decorated throughout and the room that we were in was perfect for us,the ensuite was spotless as was everything else.The breakfast(which we could have had in the conservatory) was really good and set us up for the days exploring the city.Angela was really helpful with where to eat and visit,nothing was too much trouble for her.We would recommend the Abercorn as a really good place to stay,no matter how lond a visit you might be thinking about.

my wife and i recently stayed in one of the best guest houses( in our opinion) in Edinburgh.
We go regular for the the Tattoo and Festival.
This BB was very clean and furnishings were excellent.
the Scottish breakfast was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection.
The friendly atmosphere and willingness to go the extra mile was very much appreciated.
Well done Angie for amost enjoyable stay

When I arrived at the Abercorn B&B Guest House, I was very pleased. It is a beautiful and very well maintained home built in 1870. Angela and her family live there and have restored and upgraded the house. Angela is friendly and welcoming. She is helpful and provides an excellent breakfast with a large selection of food. There was plenty to eat. The choices comprised of cereals, breads, yogurt, fruits, eggs, meats, juices, coffee, tea, jams and jellies. There are snacks and an electric pot to make hot beverages in the room. The room was lovely and the bathroom in the room was beautiful. Everything was very clean, nicely decorated and cheery. I particularly enjoyed my breakfast in the sun room. The weather was fantastic.

I walked to the beach several days which is only a few blocks from the Abercorn B&B.

My last day walking back fron the beach, I stopped to sit on a bench at a beautiful little park one block from Abercorn B&B. This was a nice ending to a very busy and fun extended weekend to Edinburgh.

I highly recommend the Abercorn B&B. It was an excellent retreat after a busy day in Centre City. The price is reasonable. The house is beautiful. Angela knows how to treat her guest.

I agree with the July 22 review. I stayed at the Abercorn in July too after reading the rave reviews. I admit that my expectations were set high after that and so I was a little (just a little) disappointed when I arrived. It is quite a ways outside of the city but the bus stop is close to the house and it takes you directly to Princes St. But at the same time it was neat to be so close to the beach. I did also have problems with the toilet flushing well and the shower pressure. But overall I was comfortable there and Angela was definitely very nice and helpful.
