Some info has been automatically translated.
Quendale Guest House is a typically spacious Victorian Edinburgh townhouse. The room is at the front of the house on the first floor and is furnished with a single bed. It has a private shower within the room and access along the hallway to a toilet (toilet is shared with one other room). A kettle, mini-fridge, microwave and complimentary tea and coffee are provided in the room.

The space
The house was built around 1886 and has very high ceilings and large windows typical of the architecture of the Victorian period.
It has been run as a guest house by my grandmother since the 1970s and I took over the business in 2016.

During your stay
Self check-in available or I will greet you on your arrival.
I will be available by telephone throughout your stay.

Other things to note
My property is situated on a busy main road, and with it being quite old, some traffic noise is inevitable. To help ensure a comfortable stay, I provide ear plugs for guests. Please keep this in mind when booking, as we want you to have the best experience possible.

Heating is provided by two central heating radiators in the room. These have individual temperature controls which can be adjusted. During the winter the central heating comes on in the morning for a few hours and for the evening (usually 6 to 11:30pm). During colder temperatures it may be on during the day and through the night. In summer it is not usual for central heating to be used. For environmental reasons in Scotland it is not usual to maintain room temperatures at 'shorts and T-shirts inside' temperatures.

I have other rooms available so can accommodate larger groups.

Lives in Edinburgh, United Kingdom
I am Edinburgh born & raised and returned just over 10 yrs ago after a decade in Ireland. My home is a Guest House which was established by my Grandmother & named Quendale (where she was from in Shetland). It's a Victorian townhouse on three floors. My home is shared with my husband & my adult son. I enjoy family life, Junomichi, growing veggies & herbs, reading & buying more books than I can fit on my bookshelves & hosting guests.
