About the host
Hosted by Lewis Ross
I’m Lewis — an ex-hotelier who now blends hotel-level service with the warmth of a family-run stay. My homes are renovated with character, comfort and quality in mind, offering a unique and relaxed alternative to traditional hotels.
I work alongside my brilliant right hand, who comes from a hospitality background and genuinely loves meeting guests. As a small, family-run team, we understand what it’s like arriving in a new city, so we’re always just a message away if you need anything.

Why they chose this property
Leith’s Shore is one of Edinburgh’s most vibrant neighbourhoods — a waterfront pocket filled with award-winning restaurants, independent cafés, craft bars and historic charm. It’s a relaxed, walkable area with great transport links into the city centre, yet feels like its own little village by the water.
What makes this property unique
This home is a full renovation of an 1800s tailor’s workshop, renovated by myself to preserve its original character while adding modern comfort throughout. The large open-plan kitchen and spacious living area make it perfect for families and groups to cook, relax and spend time together.
You’ll also be just a short walk from excellent public transport links — buses and the Edinburgh tram — making it easy to reach the city centre and all major attractions.
