Just the most wonderful digs & host. The location is absolutely perfect for the Festival theatre, and you get a beautiful view of the castle from your bedroom window. Extremely comfortable bed, huge room, I consistently slept very well. Angela is an absolute treasure too. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay with Angela–she was the perfect host and made me feel right at home. The location was excellent, especially for the Festival Theatre, and the room was spacious and comfortable. Angela had equipped the room with everyone you could possibly need and went out of her way to make sure my stay was enjoyable. Would 100% stay with Angela again. Thank you so much!

19th Dec 2025
It was such a pleasure Catherine you're welcome any time x x
Great digs! Had everything I needed, with a lovely view of Edinburgh Castle to top. About a 30 minute walk to the Playhouse, which in a city as beautiful as Edinburgh is not a bad thing. There's also a nearby bus stop.
I ended up being ill for the majority of my stay, and Angela was so kind and accommodating. I'll never forget her kindness. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Thank you jamie
Angela is such a good and kind landlady. She is so friendly and welcoming and understands the hours and pressures of working in theatre. The fridge in the room is a great bonus. I also kept meaning to mention to her how great her shower is! The room has a slightly different (and better) layout than the photos - the double bed isn’t in front of the window, but to the side. The house is in an excellent location for The Festival Theatre. Thank you Angela!

Thank you
Staying with Angela was an absolute delight. Her place is comfortable, welcoming, and thoughtfully set up, making it easy to feel at home. But what really made my stay special was Angela herself... she is an incredibly kind, respectful, and supportive host. I felt genuinely cared for throughout my time in Edinburgh, which made exploring the city even more enjoyable. It was a privilege to stay here, and I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Thank you so much Dianna
This was a special week in Edinburgh thanks to Angela. From the moment I arrived I relaxed, which is a feat towards the end of a tour! The view of the castle from the high ceilinged spacious room, the cobbles, the steps down to the Grassmarket right outside the door, the easy short walk to the Festival Theatre and into the centre of Edinburgh -all made this a great, special and memorable week. Angela there, just making sure everything was ok -Amazing host. THANK YOU ⭐️

Thanks cormac hope to host you in the future
Angela is one of the best hosts I’ve stayed with. Nothing is too much trouble, she is incredibly helpful and courteous of all of your needs. She made her home a “home away from home” for my time in Edinburgh. She lets you have your space and is very aware of the needs of performers and the working times. Would definitely stay with Angela again and hope I get to do so in the future!

Thanks lindsay for review hope to host you again
My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Angela's shared house in Edinburgh! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the city center, Edinburgh Castle, and the Traverse Theater, which made exploring the city incredibly convenient. The building itself was beautiful and full of historic charm, adding to the overall experience of staying in such a vibrant city. Angela was a fantastic host—very friendly and quick to respond to any questions, which made us feel right at home.

Had a nice stay with Angela, she was very helpful with anything i may need. The bus journey to the theatre is very easy and the walk is pretty right by the castle just beware of all the stairs. Angela's flat was very comfortable and it was useful having a fridge to myself in the room

Thank you jade hope to see you again
Angela is a wonderfully kind and welcoming host. The room was spacious, warm and comfortable. The kitchen and shower room were ideal for what I needed and having ones own front door was a boon on those later nights when the shows ran on or we went out for cast drinks or a team meal etc. Can commend to every and anyone, but be aware I have already pencilled in the same run of time for 2024 - as we care doing the show up there again!

Thank you jensen hope to host you in the future
Can’t recommend Angela’s digs highly enough. Big, spacious room with lots of storage. Super comfortable and very clean. Angela literally couldn’t be more hospitable (even though she tried!!) and even helped me through recovery from an accident. She’s so thoughtful and kind and goes above and beyond to make everything comfortable. The location is perfect with easy access to both New and Old town. I have already booked for next August. Recommended!
