    Welcoming hosts. Great breakfast. Beware of potential snorer in the room next to yours.

    Walls quite thin. If you are a light sleeper bring a set of earbuds. You might be unlucky to have a room next to a heavy snorer (or a snorer duo...). And if you are a heavy snorer then consider the other guests and point your snoring nose away from the walls or hide it under a pillow.

    Welcoming host. Great breakfast.

    If you are 6'5 tall you may find that the bed is a tiny bit too short :)

    Excellent host! Service is like a hotel but with a much more personal experience. Clean. Quiet (do not be concerned about closeness to airport). Lovely location, where small town meets countryside. 30 min by bus to downtown Edinburgh (bus app works well). Also, if you have a car, Sabannga Thai restaurant 3 miles away comes highly recommended.

    The only slight issue was that there wasn`t a lot of water pressure on the shower, but we have found that to be quite a common thing with b&b`s & it was adequate enough for the job, so no complaints

    Our room was clean & comfortable & Lorna was a good & friendly host. The breakfast was very good with plenty of options. A short walk away there is a small local pub in the village that serves good food. The location was good for us as it is far enough away from the city to be quiet but only about 15 - 20 mins away from the park & ride. There is also a small country park a very short walk away which is a bit of a hidden gem.

    Very convenient for Edinburgh. One of the best b and b breakfasts we have had. Hostess absolutely lovely. Very useful to have onsite parking. Great pub only a short distance away

    No complaints!

    We booked the Whitecroft B&B as a final stay in Scotland before our flight home. It was a wonderfully relaxing way to end our trip. The breakfast was amazing! And the beds were so comfortable. The treats in the room along with the coffee/tea service included our favorite Tunnock's caramel wafers.

    Can't fault the accommodation or host at all.

    Our host was very welcoming, helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was lovely, our room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Well stocked hospitality tray.

    The owners gave us a very warm welcome and the property had a lovely ambience. We had everything that we needed for a lovely stay and a lovely touch were the complimentary chocolates and caramel wafer biscuits which we really enjoyed! In the morning we enjoyed a lovely Scottish breakfast which we’d highly recommend. Thank you very much Lorna & Dougie for welcoming us into your home, we had a really lovely stay.

    It was further from the airport than we realized about a 30 pound taxi ride both ways ( with tip). The cars racing past at night kept us awake - but what really disturbed our rest was the couple talking in the next room. They weren’t loud but …Paper thin walls!

    Small but very comfortable twin room. These are hard to come by!

    The room was quite small and would have been difficult if we had arrived from an international flight with big bags.

    Location was good for drive to airport. Short walk to town and walking paths into countryside. Room was comfortable with clean linen. Tea and coffee provided. Host was helpful and welcoming.
