Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Leith

The host is very friendly and responsive, the room is tidy, comfortable and clean, and the bedding is very comfortable.The only disadvantage is that the Wi-Fi signal is weak, and there is no signal a few steps away on the second floor

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!

Corrina's flat is everything you could want: chic, cozy, comfortable, and so close to everything you might enjoy on holiday. Steps away from a gorgeous harbour with a walking path perfect for sunset strolls and lively restaurants. Prestonpans station is minutes away by car if you want to travel into Edinburgh to take in the sights. Corinna herself is a fantastic host, setting out Scottish treats to welcome you and making sure check in was a simple process. She even gave us so many recommendations of things to do and see nearby as well as leaving a lovely card and bottle of prosecco to celebrate our honeymoon! Really above and beyond, we can't say how much we loved our stay here. Really hoping to return again in the not too distant future.

Absolutely perfect for a stay in Edinburgh, tram station to town centre just a 5 minute walk away and then 15-20 minute tram ride. Lots to do locally and Laura sent me a comprehensive list of recommendations of places to see, socialise and how to get around. The house itself is newly decorated and furnished, immaculate, nice little garden to sit out in and a free parking space. My only disappointment was that we only had 2 nights here!

This is the best place to stay in Edinburgh. The design and facilities are perfect. I really enjoyed my stay in this house. The owner is really kind and friendly.

Great base to explore the city. About a 40min walk to Old Town. Beds are comfortable and Jamie was very helpful. Thanks for everything!

This was my friend and I first time in Scotland and we had a wonderful stay here. The location is peaceful, about 30 minutes by car or an hour by bus to central Edinburgh. There’s a big supermarket and a few good restaurants nearby, which made things very convenient. The place was spotless and very well maintained. Susan and Gerry were lovely hosts, they welcomed us with a stocked fridge, a homemade loaf of bread, and muffins which was so kind of them! The home has so much character and history, and they kindly shared its story with us. Highly recommended!

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.

A great apartment in a really interesting part of town. Good value and even better views. Lots of fantastic eateries and other things to discover in the local neighbourhood. …and a huge thank you to Simon for being such a welcoming and responsive host - he suggested vastly more places to eat than we could ever fit in…

Gorgeous, spacious and comfortable flat. We stayed with our two-year-old, and had no trouble with him sleeping in the little walk-in space. The kitchen was especially nice for dining; also was a great shower and excellent bed/pillows! Coffee at Little Fitzroy was splendid and we walked to almost everywhere but had peace & quiet at night.

Dave was a great host and provide all the information we needed to stay at is wonderful apartment. Amazing location!

If you are staying in EDI, this is a must see! We loved the Airbnb. Extremely clean, spacious and beautiful decor. It felt very Scottish, and had a lot of character. I recommend staying in this area (the shore) as it was a little bit more quiet, with a ton of great restaurants, bars and right on the water. The hosts were responsive and accommodated us on our early check. Definitely worth the stay!

A helpful team and a lovely apartment to stay in. It was clean and tidy and a fantastic location.

We had a wonderful time at Francesca’s place. She was super helpful and communicative, checking in on us regularly throughout our staying and making sure everything in the apartment was how we needed it. The apartment itself is beautifully decorated and has lots of space, with everything you could need for a short stay in the city. The location is also great with lots of transport available for getting downtown.

Amazing property, we loved our stay. Close to the centre, not too noisy. Would happily stay again :)

Excellent accommodations. The location was great for exploring the city with its convenient tram access.

I highly recommend Anke-Beate's flat. We would definitely return. The location is ideal to get around Edinburgh, it is spacious and even better than the photos. Everything was clean, and the added touches were very much appreciated. The flat is fully kitted out with everything needed. Communication was great. Thank you for a great stay!

Amazing place to stay while visiting Edinburgh. Located in a cute neighborhood where you can feel like a local. Very walkable. Excellent views in two directions, to the water in Newhaven/Leith and towards Arthur’s Seat/old town. Gorgeously decorated and also very comfortable. Anita shared super helpful recommendations that made our stay that much more memorable - even recommendations for our drive to and from London (to stop at Holy Island / Lindisfarne Castle which was a trip highlight). Kitchen properly outfitted for good cooking and grocery stores walkable nearby. So lovely - I wish I could live here.

Christine was very accommodating and an excellent host. The location was phenomenal and we had milk for tea! Highly recommend.

We had a great stay in Brian's apartment. Instructions for getting key were clear and easy to follow. The apartment was spotless and had everything required for a very pleasant stay. We enjoyed having the patio area to sit in for morning coffee or an evening refreshment. Easy local transport links to city centre are very close by. Pubs, restaurants and a large Supermarket are within an easy 10 mins walk. Brian was easy to communicate with and gave us some local recommendations. We would recommend Brian's apartment and will book again if its available when we are visiting Edinburgh again in the future.

We spent two nights at The Butler's Basement for my husband's birthday and it was an ideal base. We did have an issue getting in as the lockbox didn't work, but her son came down and resolved the issue. The apartment was very clean and in a great area - some lovely bars and restaurants that we preferred to spend time in, more than the busier side of Edinburgh. Gemma was very responsive to my messages and we also had a bottle of fizz in the fridge as well as some short bread and chocolate. It might be an idea to put a small bottle of milk in the fridge, as we did have tea and coffee provided but didn't want to buy a whole pint of milk to make a couple of drinks. However it certainly wasn't an issue that would stop us staying again!

We had an amazing time staying at Carly’s place. The apartment is so cute and clean and it is close to some excellent restaurants; generally great, central location. We would 100% stay here again if we get to come back!

We had a fantastic stay at Calum’s place. Having flown from Australia it was lovely to arrive to a cosy, beautifully decorated and incredibly quiet apartment. It had everything we needed, was easy to find and access, close to public transport though it was easy to walk to all key places. Calum communicated clearly and in a timely fashion. We would definitely stay again, highly recommend!

This was a very pleasant stay. The host was very patient and responsive to all our questions. The apartment was comfortable, clean, and located in a quiet neighborhood — with a small dog park just across the street. We had a wonderful holiday here.
