Bed & Breakfast at Cairn, Ravelston Dykes offers a deluxe double bedroom together with private bath & shower room and luxurious guest lounge with satellite HDTV. Sandy and Marie’s house is a stunning 1930’s detached family home with many original art deco features and a beautiful private garden.
We are a couple with two children at university. We love living in Edinburgh and particularly during August when the Edinburgh Festival and Edinburgh Fringe are in full swing. We will be delighted to share our tips and suggestions with our guests on how to get the most out of their trip to Edinburgh.
