Beachfront holiday rentals in Edinburgh

Great apartment. Had everything we needed. Lovely view out to sea. Great bathroom with powerful shower.

We had a truly lovely stay at the Cottage! The place had everything we needed and more; beautifully decorated, comfortably furnished, and incredibly well-equipped, especially the kitchen. The garden looked absolutely stunning, it was such a shame we didn’t get a chance to enjoy it properly due to the weather. The location was perfect, just a few minutes from the beach and beautiful walks, ideal for taking the dogs and kids out first thing in the morning. One of the real highlights for us was the bed, honestly, it might be the most comfortable one we’ve ever slept in! All the information provided was super clear, and both Jane and Joyce were incredibly quick and helpful in responding to any questions we had. We truly loved the place – it made our visit feel extra special.

Great property better than expectations. Met on arrival by the fantastic Aileen who was so lovely. Gave us a tour and answered questions. She followed up by message later to check all ok. As regular visitors to area (visiting family) we have stayed in various places. This is one of the nicest/most relaxing & comfiest beds. Views of sea and easy walk to beach. Highly recommend. X

The place was amazing! Dan and Alex were very friendly.

Great place with plenty of space, nice and clean. Amazing seaside views and round the corner from the high street. Would love to stay again!

Perfect for what we needed it for! Spacious and clean! Just one to note- no WIFI and signal was a bit spotty at times! Also the on site facilities such as swimming pool, require you to pay for a weekly pass to use! Apart from that was a great place to stop, and was perfect for our intended use!

This is a special place to stay for some nights near Edinburgh. A charming nice house in a nice little seaside town... The beds are comfortable and the kitchen very cosy, especially when the weather is not good for once... Can definitely recommend!

Sacha was super helpful, great accommodation, thanks for having us again

Perfect place to stay for a few days on a budget. About 10min walk from bus stops that led to the city, took about an hour to get into the city from here. Owners always got back with us quickly and were so kind. I reccommend staying here if you want more of a cozy stay away from the city!

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely caravan. It was spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and felt really cosy and welcoming. Everything was just as described, and we had a great time relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. Would happily return thank you for a lovely break!

Fabulous holiday. Location is great as its a few minutes walk to the beach and bus stop to Edinburgh. David kindly left biscuits, tea and coffee and there was everything needed for cooking and also to maintain cleaning if felt the need. Everything was thought about so you didn't have too. Lovely and clean cabin. David was very responsive if needed. Access to the cabin was easy as keys were left in a key safe by the front door. Only negative was a constant drip from the sink tap. We resolved this mostly by leaving the plug in at night. Didn't impact our holiday. A previous review mentioned about play passes to access the swimming pool and Haven entertainment unfortunately to access these we needed to pay £58 per adult and £30 something for the kids each. We felt it wasn't worth the money. We went to a leisure pool 30 mins away in Dunbar which was great and had a fabulous wave pool. We're very happy to have chosen this place. I'm sure you will be to.

A beautiful, warm and delightful holiday home. Few mins walk to the beach and on a lovely holiday park with great facilities for children and dogs. Amazingly stocked kitchen equipment and such comfy beds and bedding. Would highly recommend and look forward to coming back!

Maggie is an amazing host. We arrived to find groceries already waiting for us and a belated birthday gift for myself. Communication was easy and fast. Kids loved the bonus of the play station and the two ride-on bikes. Easy to catch bus 26 from just outside the park to go into Edinburgh. We loved that the location of the van was close enough to everything of the park but still in a quiet section.

We just felt right at home and comfortable in Mary's van....location was quiet and easily accessible...lovely little touches throughout...willl be back !!

I really enjoyed staying at Manuelas place, very clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend staying here. 👌

I spent nearly four months in Wendy's accommodation. I had a great time there! The apartment itself offers great views, and the room is very comfortable. It is easily accessible by bus and has a good connection to the city centre and main University Campus, as well as being close to a big supermarket and the beach. Being on the outskirts of the city and by the sea, it made it very easy to find peace, walking along the beach or visiting my personal favourite place, Newhailes Estate. For those coming to study here: the bus connection to the University of Edinburgh's King's Buildings is not great, especially on the way back, and if you'll have to be there a lot I'd recommend getting a bicycle, which is about twice as fast. Wendy is a very friendly host, who is usually not home during the day but if you run into her and she has time she will be open for a chat - for example sharing stories or music. She loves baking, and might leave something she made in the fridge for you!

Lovely place to stay. Very clean and a home from home feel

Great views; booked on the fly during my holiday; no complaints!

Had a great stay with Trish! Such a nice little space with everything you need, plus super close to the train station that goes right into Edinburgh city!

good functional apartment which enabled us to make a family Christmas dinner. good responsive communication from staff. transport links very good to central Edinburgh and good restaurants and bars in walking distance

Amazing place, I would recommend anyone to visit, Friendly people and I love the area. Had problems finding the place to start with so anyone Visiting, soon as you reach Edinburgh just put BATH STREET on your navigation it will take you right outside the property.

Sheila’s flat is in a perfect location in Portobello, very close to the promenade and the sea. We had a lovely few days stay there. The flat is most welcoming, comfortable and attractive with beautiful artwork on the walls making it a special place to stay.

The location of this apartment is absolutely perfect. Walking to the beach and to 2 fantastic coffee / breakfast restaurants takes about 1 minute. Also close - a little grocery store, some attractive shops, and at least one pub! You can get buses directly to Edinburgh or the many nearby towns. Excellent bedding here, two bathrooms (one tub, one shower) is a real bonus. We cooked twice - kitchen is not equipped for prepping a big dinner, but all set for simple meals. The living area is nice and spacious. A bucket of plastic beach toys at the door is a thoughtful touch. If I had one suggestion for the host, it would be to upgrade the window coverings so that the lovely and cheerful “shabby chic” beach vibe doesn’t start to lean too far into the “shabby” side. I would happily return to this place, and would recommend it to anyone seeking a comfortable and homey getaway.

We really enjoyed our stay at this quirky, interesting house. It’s an Aladdin’s cave of books, music and art work. And a very comfortable place to relax after a busy day exploring the beach and Edinburgh. The beds were comfy, the shower powerful, plenty of chairs, access to wifi, an Alexa, hot tub (we were so grateful for this to cool down in on the hottest day of the year!), a projector to watch films and tv shows using iPlayer and Amazon Prime and lots of towels. We were appreciative too of the wine and coffee left for us. The house is 2 minutes from the beach and there are plenty of local shops and cafes around the corner. The next door neighbour is a lovely chap who was happy to answer questions. Our children were delighted to look after their affectionate cats. I would recommend staying in this house. Thank you Thea and family for letting us stay in this family home built with love.
