About this property

Cosy Edinburgh cottage, near Portobello

St Margaret's Cottage offers cosy, self-catering accommodation in Edinburgh in an ideal location near Portobello on the east side. This detached cottage provides accommodation for up to four people, with open plan living/dining area fully fitted kitchen on the ground floor and two bedrooms (one double, one twin) and bathroom on the upper floor. This is perfect self-catering holiday accommodation in Edinburgh to explore the city, beach and countryside alike.

One well behaved dog is welcome by prior arrangement only at time of booking. Owners must provide dogs bedding and towels and they are not permitted on furniture or beds and must not be left unattended in the property for any amount of time. An additional fee applies of £25 per stay which is paid directly to the property owner.

NEW FOR APRIL 2021: We have used our lockdown time wisely and totally refurbished the kitchen and bathroom (now with a walk-in powerful shower rather than small bath). We've painted the front and put new furniture, fencing and taken down the large conifer trees in the back garden, so it's ALOT sunnier (we've also graveled over this area with Scottish pebbles).... There's also a new firepit for cosy outdoor lounging or BBQing- pics to follow.

Easy and comfortable
Great spot for our family to stay for just shy of 3 weeks. Initially thought it was quite cosy and small (coming from Australia!) But it had everything we needed to be comfortable when in. We could cook or get takeaway from the neighbouring places. Excellent shower. Great communication with host Fiona when needed. Convenient location for us to visit relatives as well as get into city centre. Highly recommend.

Net en leuk huisje, perfecte ligging aan de rand van de stad.
Prima & goed verblijf gehad! Schoon, compleet en gezellig. Parkeer gelegenheid voor de deur is erg prettig. Wifi is top! Heerlijke bedden, schoon sanitair. Vriendelijke eigenaresse. Voor een klein bedrag mocht de hond mee, prima deal.
