House rentals with a pool

The Granary
We had a fantastic weekend staying here to celebrate my best friend. The house is gorgeous with so much space! The photos do not do it justice! There was a lovely pool and hot tub. Sarah came by to make sure we’d settled in and was available if we needed anything. We’d even got a later check out which was a great bonus. Everyone had a great time! I will definitely recommend booking The Granary! I would love to come back for another trip. Sarah had also left us a bottle of Prosecco to welcome us which was a lovely touch we appreciated. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Northfield, Cottage Apartment
We loved our stay! Everything was clean and the bedroom were very nice with comfortable beds. The house had a very cozzy feeling to it. We didn’t had the right plugs for the phone charger and they were nice enough to borrow us 4. On the day of our check out we needed ice to put in the insulin container of my mom and they went above and beyond to get some ice for us, really thankful for that! Overall I would really recommend this place. Location was great too, close by to the beach and restaurants and just 1 hour away from Edinburgh

Edinburgh, New Sea View Caravan
Absolutely beautiful caravan. Spacious and so accommodating and a stunning view!

Static Caravan Holiday Home
This was a lovely place to stay. I was attending a wedding close by and it was perfect for what we needed. Scott was great to communicate with and a really lovely guy, will definitely be back.

Northfield, Garden Apartment (3 bedroom)
I booked this property at short notice and the reason was because I saw that it had a good location and also a pool for my children to play in the water and that since I had a short time, I saw this as a good space, but the only thing is that the pool cannot be used in cold weather.... But in terms of being large, clean and tidy and having amenities, it is a very suitable place, just because I wanted to go to Edinburgh, which was an hour away. Most importantly, the owner was very kind and polite. He also lived in the property next door and was a very nice person. When we returned, our cat was lost in the garden and he helped us find it with great kindness and patience. I am extremely grateful to him, I recommend that you travel there for rest and accommodation.

Northfield, Garden Apartment (2 bedroom)
Booked Northfield as a base close to family as well as attending events in the central belt. House was perfect for our family, clean, tidy and lovely big outdoor space. Little added extras such as the loaf of bread, milk, butter and shortbread was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend and have already passed on to my relatives abroad who may wish to visit the area in the future as an ideal base.

Seton Sands, Edinburgh, Beautiful Sea View
We had a great time in Edinburgh and the accommodation was really good. transport to Edinburgh was amazing. buses ran every ten minutes from just outside the holiday park and the train station was less than a ten minute drive away too. The accommodation was superb. A credit to the owners. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a holiday looking to explore Edinburgh.

Static Caravan Holiday Home
Scots place was beautiful. Lots to do inside and outside. Kids had lot of fun as there were toys scooter and bike. There was colouring books and pens card games kids did not get enough time as we only booked for one night. Scott was kind and he extended our check out. Kids made the most out of it. Not far away from Edinburgh castle which was our holiday plans to explore Edinburgh city. Clean kitchen and toilet and shower. We had everything we needed in the caravan. Thanks Scott for making the one night stay comfortable. You are a star

Tranquil Retreat in the City/Free parking/Wifi
My friends and I enjoyed a great stay at Di’s place. She was an excellent host - from booking through to check out - and offers a very well equipped, spotlessly clean and spacious place to stay in a lovely part of Edinburgh. The beds are comfy, the decor is tasteful and lighting has been well thought-out. And there’s a lovely garden too. We found it a very pleasant and peaceful place to return to after exploring Edinburgh. There are great restaurants, coffee shops and shops a couple of minutes walk away - and it is a nice walk into the centre of the city and out to Arthur’s Seat. I highly recommend and would love to stay again in the future. Thank you Di!

Peaceful house with small garden next to park
Great place and Michael is friendly and helpful. House is clean and very peaceful. Guest should note that the bedroom and bathroom are upstairs so be aware of that if you have difficulty climbing stairs. Overall a lovely spot and very easy to find. Thanks for a great stay.

Hideaway country cottage near Edinburgh
We really enjoyed our stay! The cottage is very cozy and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. Our toddler especially loved exploring outside and had a great time running around the old Kirk next door. A lovely, peaceful spot—we’d definitely stay again!

Shiel House, Rumbling Bridge
The Shiel House was an absolutely stunning and massive property. We visited as a large group of 8 on a golf trip, and this was the perfect Airbnb. It was beyond spacious, with all the amenities a large group would need for a week long stay. The location was great for us with popular golfing destinations like St Andrews and Gleneagles within driving distance, as well as a litany of local courses. We also were within driving distance of Edinburgh with plenty of fine dining options. Tim was a very gracious and helpful host who provided clear instructions on locating the property, as well as a fun treasure hunt that takes you around the property and to local spots. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the property and the host!!

Central Holiday Cottage with Garden & Free Parking
We had a fantastic stay at Green Cottage. Craig was very helpful from the start with travel tips and luggage drop off information. Craig provided very useful information for checking in and locating the cottage, everything was easy to follow. The cottage is in a lovely location, within walking distance of the Royal Botantial Gardens and the coast line. It is also near many bus routes and easy to visit all the tourist sites in Edinburgh.

Beautiful luxurious cottage
The house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for our 5 day break. Gary gave us some good advice about the local buses into Edinburgh and the bus stop was only 5 minutes away as was an Aldi supermarket. The bus into the city took only 15 minutes and was always reliable. The house itself was very modern and the bed was SO comfortable! Will definitely recommend Gary’s house to family and friends!

Luxury Nests - Grassmarket
The location couldn't be more ideal. There are coffee shops and restaurants just a few steps away, but it remains quiet and private because it is tucked away. You can get to all major attractions easily on foot. And you can step outside and see Edinburgh Castle. The place was clean and nicely decorated.

Renovated - Cosy 3 bedroom home - Central Edinburgh
I spent time with my family in John's house, and it was even nicer than it seemed in the pictures. We spent every night in the living room because it was the best, and the decorations made it seem pleasant. I have nothing but good things to say about it. Thanks for making our family trip great!

Peaceful Coach House for four in Trinity,Edinburgh
We absolutely loved Kirsteen's place. The coach house itself was just perfect for our needs. Two spacious bedrooms, a large sitting area and kitchen, all in a beautiful neighborhood. We enjoyed walking to the nearby park with our dog, and we really enjoyed the nearby cafe and pub recommended by our hosts. The bus into town was super convenient. We highly recommend staying with Kirsteen for the perfect balance of tourist and local while visiting Edinburgh.

Bright and cosy duplex.
We loved staying at Ken’s place in the historic cottages. Very nicely renovated and modern inside, bus to Edinburgh right out the front, easy car parking, close to airport, a garden space; all great. Thoroughly recommend staying here for a trip to Edinburgh.

Edinburgh City, Sea & Nature Retreat
Great and clean house approximately 40 min. away from the city center. We were with the 4 of us and 2 of us had to sleep in the living room, but if you're not home that much that is not a problem at all. The neighbourhood was nice and quiet, and despite it not being close by any of the main tourist attractions of the city, the public transport to and from the city was relatively fast. The hosts were nice and easy to communicate with. Overall, a great place to stay! Would definitely recommend :)

17th Century Dovecot, 20 min to Edinburgh by train
The house is relatively spacious for 2 people, and located less than 10 min walk to Inverkeithing train station. Door to door, you can be in Edinburgh in 30 minutes, which is very convenient. Leon was very responsive when we had questions. He helped us adjust the heating, and brought us an extra blanket when we asked him. A few points to note however: the bed is quite soft, and the light passes quite a bit through the curtains of the bedroom, so plan to bring an eye mask if you are sensitive to it.

Cosy suite in quiet cul-de-sac
Has everything you could Need for a City Trip and was probably one of the cleanest airbnbs I have ever Seen, would definetly recommend!

Luxury Private Mews House in Edinburgh’s New Town
Melissa’s flat has been put together with so much thought, it is stylish, cosy, and comfortable. It is perfectly located to be walkable for all the main sites in Edinburgh and has lots of nice restaurants, coffee shops, and bars nearby (and Melissa provided a guidebook to help find the best spots). Melissa was incredibly accommodating and even arranged an infant cot for us. Would absolutely stay again!

Stunning 1870 Fisherman’s Cottage
We loved the decor - so many lovely touches and were really comfortable. The 26 bus meant we were really well connected to Edinburgh and the pretty coast.

The Garden Cottage
The Garden Cottage was everything we hoped for and more. The location was very convenient to Stockbridge and all of its restaurants and shops. There are numerous bus stops within 10-20 mins walk to grab a quick bus up the hill into New Town, across Princes Gardens into Old Town, or even for easy day trips like to Rosslyn Chapel or Portobello. Victoria was a very accommodating host and easy to work with. The cottage had plenty of space, was very well equipped for self-catering, and was stocked with all the basics you need (e.g., coffee, tea, sugar, etc.). Having a washer and dryer (as well as a drying rack) was a luxury we’ve rarely seen in the UK or Europe.
