Arden House is a small B&B in Musselburgh on the coast to the east of Edinburgh. It is approximately 30 mins drive to Edinburgh and 30 mins drive to North Berwick. We offer comfortable rooms and include a continental breakfast, served in a basket, delivered to your room each morning. Please note that we no longer have a dining room for cooked breakfasts.

Amazing staff, nothing too much trouble. Even waited for me to arrive at midnight to see me in. For another twenty pound I could have booked the Best Western Hotel and got a plain boring run of the mill every day room. But for less I got a beautiful victorian room with a gorgeous art decco themed en-suite bathroom and wonderfully welcoming hosts. Next time I will be booking direct with you.

This cottage is amazing. It ticked every box. We had one little problem with the drains: 1 phone call and someone came round within the hour and sorted it. That really is a good service

Offering quiet street views, Riverside is an accommodation located in Musselburgh, 9.3 km from Edinburgh Playhouse and 10 km from Royal Mile. Featuring river and inner courtyard views, this apartment also comes with free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 2.6 km from Portobello Beach.

The property was lovely, fresh, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Lovely modern smart TV, nice, well stocked kitchen, shower and bath. Nice views over the river but only 2 mins walk from high street. Tescos literally over the road too and beach 5 mins drive away. Easy access instructions and parking readily available. It was home away from home. Price wise, Edinburgh pricing is generally high (and rugby world cup was on) so whilst not inexpensive it is comparable.
