Mary is an outstanding host and her flat couldn't be more perfectly situated on the coast. Had an amazing stay in Edinburgh and enjoyed getting to know the Portobello area. Mary is one of those people who cares so much about her guests and supporting artists.

I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Edinburgh. Backs directly onto Portobello Beach, gorgeous room and Mary is a delight. 10/10
