From my first email requesting availability to our final farewell, our contact and time with Gerald and his Bed and Breakfast was a delight. When travelling, it is rare to find someone, who from the first moment , makes you feel that you have known them for a very long time and that their main aim is to do everything... more

My girlfriend and I have just returned from a 2 night stay at Geraldsplace. We were delighted with the accommodation. From the moment we arrived Gerald made us feel very welcome. Our room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The whole place has sense of superior quality. Breakfast was no disappointment either. A range of cereals, fresh and dried fruit... more

I'm a very experienced traveler and have stayed at many hotels in different parts of the world. I have to say that Gerald's place is one of the best. I was very well taken care of by Gerald. He made sure that I had everything I needed and was comfortable. I felt like I was staying with a family, that's... more

Four of us from California stayed at Gerald's for three nights in early May 2008--before we set off on a two week Scottish walking holiday. We had a glorious time. Gerald is not only very hospitable, but he also offers comfortable accommodations. Great beds, great shower, and great breakfast. And his place is conveniently located--within walking distance of just about... more

My husband and I, and my two older teen-aged children stayed at Gerald’s Place for 5 days during the second week of June 2008. We loved Edinburgh, it is a beautiful city! What made our visit more than special, however, was our stay at Gerald’s Place. As has been mentioned before, the reason Gerald’s Place is so special is the... more

My son and I spent a week in Edinburgh with day trips and a good bit of family research. Gerald could not have been more helpful or have provided more information and assistance. He gave the B&B the feel of a good home base from which we could venture out into a City and country new to both of us.... more

we'll never forget gerald's warm, welcoming smile as we arrived. and the "welcome" sign in the window. and the welcoming bottle of wine. i don't think anybody goes to greater lengths to make visitors welcome than gerald. he's even arranged to have three of edinburgh's top restaurants located on a corner barely one block from his place. now, who else... more

Four of us began our three-week Scotland vacation in grand style by staying at Gerald's Place in Edinburgh for three nights. Gerald treated us as close friends visiting his comfortable and conveniently located home. He is a very friendly and personable man who took great efforts to welcome us with a cogent orientation on Edinburgh, and excellent advice on taking... more
