The Sherwood

A warm welcome is assured at our guest house.
It offers superior Bed & Breakfast accomodation in Edinburgh (STB and AA registered).
It is part of a Georgian Terrace built in 1835 and is situated 1 mile from Princes Street on the main A701 road into town from the South.
Although it contains many of the original features of a Georgian Town House, our Guest House has been upgraded to a very high standard. All rooms have en-suite toilet and showers (which are the most powerful available in any hotel or Guest House in Britain) or private facilities, central heating, coloured T.V. and tea/herbal tea and coffee making facilities. In short everything a good Bed & Breakfast establishment should offer.

After a good nights sleep in our quiet ( all rooms secondary glazed) comfortable bedrooms, you can begin the day with one of our hearty breakfasts and be ready to set off for a full day in the City of Edinburgh.
Twenty yards from our front door is a bus stop where you can catch a bus to almost any part of the city.
We have parking for 3 cars which is worked on a first come first served basis and there is no such thing as a reserved space. There are however plenty of metered and free parking bays in the surrounding area, most of which are less than 50 meters from the front door.
We are five minutes walk from the Royal Commonwealth Swimming Pool and a 30 minute walk will take you to the top of Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh's fine volcanic hill. This will give panoramic views of the whole of Edinburgh and over into the Kingdom of Fife.
There are a number of local restaurants which cater for all tastes and a plentiful supply of take-away specialists who will supply everything from a basic fish and chips, Italian delights (Pizza & Pasta), up to an Indian or Chinese banquet.

Why Edinburgh?

In addition to having some of the nicest Guest Houses / Bed & Breakfast establishments, Edinburgh must surely be one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
It's main thouroughfare (Prince's Street) while having some beautiful monuments, gardens, art galleries, and stores, is dominated by a large castle which sits atop a most imposing rock.
There are castles, palaces, museums, galleries, cathedrals , churches and municipal buildings enough to satify the most ardent archiological scholar.
For the culture vultures there are many fine theatres and music halls especially during the various festivals that take place throughout the year.The Jazz and Folk Music festivals are only two of the yearly musical events and we must not forget the International Festival (Aug-Sept) when every hall in the town is transformed into a theatre for the duration.
Edinburgh can also boast of some of the finest bars and restuarants to be found anywhere. All tastes are catered for whether it is Pub Grub and a pint, haute cuisine and fine wines or something in between.
