Property Overview

Craigwell Cottage is situated a short distance (only one block away) from Edinburgh's historic Royal Mile and the Palace of Holyroodhouse. This city centre cottage provides something a little different from apartment accommodation and is an ideal base from which to explore Edinburgh and to tour central Scotland. We provide a parking space in our private courtyard so that you can leave your car and set off on foot. We even have a shared secret garden with lovely views to the Palace and over to Holyrood Park.

The cottage is part of a former brewery built in 1822 which was sympathetically converted in 1987 to form flats, townhouses and one semi-detached cottage which was the former gatehouse of the brewery.

The cottage overlooks the central courtyard of the complex to one side, and over gardens with views towards the Scottish Parliament buildings and over to Salisbury Crags.

Entering from the courtyard, there are two bedrooms (one double, one twin) on the ground floo... Read more

Great location perfect for everthing Edinburgh has to offer

We stayed in Craigwell Cottage in early December 2009. The cottage is perfectly located just off the Royal Mile and within easy walking distance of all the main attractions in Edinburgh.
The property itself is very comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay.
Parking by the door was also really helpful in central Edinburgh.
I would recommend this property. More...

Manager Response to M Watts

We were very happy to welcome Mark and family to stay with us in December, and are glad that they enjoyed their stay so much that they are already thinking of returning. It's a great testament when guests want to return, and we're hoping that we will have as many returning guests at Craigwell Cottage as we do at our very popular Sandcastle Cottage in Crail, Fife.

Excellent Edinburgh stay

Three of us met for a long weekend in Craigwell cottage. It met all our needs for comfort, cleanliness, location etc. I would heartily recommend it for up to 4 people and would certainly use it again on another such visit.

A lovely, well equipped place in the heart of Edinburgh

We had a wonderful week in the very comfortable and well-equipped cottage. Beautifully decorated and only a minute's walk from the Royal Mile. A brilliant place to stay with a private garden, great views and private parking. More...

It was lovely to welcome Shirley and Andrew to Craigwell Cottage, as they had stayed with us before at Sandcastle-in-The-City, our apartment which we sold in 2007 to buy Craigwell Cottage. We do hope we'll be able to welcome them back again in the future as they enjoy the Festival and the city of Edinburgh so much.

A lovely little cottage

We loved the cottage and how it was within easy walking distance from the busy attractions of Edinburgh, including the castle, as well as the quietness of countryside. It was ideal for the four of us and furnished with everything we might need. We will certainly be in touch when we re-visit Edinburgh.
