We had booked the Garden Appartment for a 4 night stay in Edinburgh. We really wanted self catering rather than a hotel and wanted to be within walking distance of the Edinburgh highlights, Pilrig House certainly ticked all the boxes. From the minute we arrived at Pilrig our hosts could not have been more helpful. We had texted Debbie to... More

My wife and I recently spent 4 days in Edinburgh and stayed in the two bedroom apartment at Pilrig House. Without exception, this was one of the best places at which we have stayed. The hosts, Debbie and Philip, are charming and provide a wealth of information about the area, its history and its quirks--the type of information you really... More

I stayed in the Balfour apartment with my parents and girlfriend for a week. After hiring a car at the airport and were met by Debbie on arrival. There is a dedicated parking space for the apartment. Any worries about four adults sharing the apartment were soon dispelled when we were shown around. Two large double bedrooms and a large... More

Stayed in Pilrig House for 5 days for a wedding in Edinburgh. The one bedroom garden apartment was perfect. The location is on Pilrig Park, so much nicer to step out into a park than a parking lot. The apt was lovely with high end amenities. Philip and Debbie were the best. I cannot say enough about the location and... More

I stayed at Pilrig House for three months in 2011, from February-May - while I was working in Edinburgh. I loved it. I spent half the time in the Garden Apartment and half in the Balfour. It was enchanting. I especially loved sitting in the window boxes looking at beautiful Pilrig Park and seeing the seasons change. Pilrig House is... More

We loved our stay with Pilrig House. The apartment was lovely and had everything we could need. And it was so nice to be able to step outside to a garden and park (vs a busy street). It was a short walk to town and the apartment came with parking. we were very happy with our choice.

Pilrig house is a lovely older manor house situated within a small enclave of houses and backing onto the lovely Pilrig Park. I stayed in the one bedroom Garden Flat which was extremely well laid out and quite spacious. The flat was absolutely spotless and believe me I am extremely fussy. You want for nothing whilst staying here. A decanter... More

Everything was incredible at The Pilrig House. When we arrived we were thrilled to see fresh milk and water in the fridge, a fruit basket, chocolates and whiskey just waiting for us to indulge! The Pilrig house was large, clean and beautifully decorated. There was not one thing missing...the owners had literally thought of everything a guest could need. The... More

Believe all these reviews - Pilrig House simply can't be beaten. Everything about the apartment was perfect ... the location ideal ... and hosts Debbie and Philip have got to be two of the nicest people on the planet. We don't get to Edinburgh often enough, but are very much looking forward to the next time we do, especially to... More

It was more than we needed, we were only 2 and this apartment could have slept 3 or 4. We didn't cook as much as we planned to so the kitchen part was nice and well stocked but a tad irrelevant. The hosts are simply the best I've seen. The only reason I gave it a 4 in service is... More
