We truly enjoyed out three-night stay at Ard Na Said. While not within reasonable walking distance of the Royal Mile (in our view), there were several good restaurants just a couple of minutes away (we tried two of them) and a very convenient bus route was just around the corner.

So we waited in the carpark for half an hour, then... more

My brother and I recently stayed at Olive & Jim's guesthouse for a long weekend and had a wonderful time.
