Bed and Breakfast Description

 

At the top of the 14th century old tower lies a vaulted bedroom suite ideal for a romantic get-away. The steep spiral staircase leads up past a glass walkway over the old dungeon to a roof top walkway with panoramic views. Why not enjoy a leisurely breakfast on the roof walk on a nice sunny morning? The bedroom suite had an ensuite bathroom with stand-alone bath. The bed is an enormous 7 foot wide 'Emperor' bed. In the suite is a tv with dvd player, microwave, mini-fridge, kettle and toaster.

Guests staying in the Tower Vaults also have exclusive use of the finest room in the castle, the Great Hall. This magnificent old room has an original stone built fireplace with a log-burning stove, perfect for winter evenings. Beside the window there are stone window seats built into the thick castle walls. In the corner of the room are what remains of the now inaccessible old staircase. Up on the ceiling are some of the original corbels from when the castle was destroyed by fire after the Battle of Pinkie. Behind the tartan curtain is an original toilet called the "Laird's Lug" where the Lairds could listen to their prisoners down in the dungeon below.

A continental breakfast is provided for guests to enjoy in the bedroom suite at their leisure.

 

Edinburgh Attractions

 
Setting offers the perfect balance between being close to the buzz of Edinburgh yet have the advantage of a peaceful rural setting amidst rolling farmland. East Lothian is renowned for its pretty beaches and villages and being a golfers dream. Guests can also have a tour of the castle and meet the horses, hens and sheep.

Edinburgh boasts a wide variety of museums, historic houses, art galleries, concert halls; it is essentially an arts city full of culture. The Edinburgh International Festival is the finest festival of music, art and drama in the world and is a major attraction during the summer when an impressive Military Tattoo is also held in the evenings at Edinburgh Castle. In addition to the official Festival, there is the Fringe Festival which caters for the avant-garde with hundreds of university and college groups performing new works. Jazz, film, book and folk festivals are usually held through the summer when the city definitely takes on a festive air.

In and around Edinburgh there are many excellent golf courses within easy reach of Fa'side. Muirfield is about 8 miles away; the Musselburgh Links (9 holes), which Fa'side overlooks, was used for some of the very earliest championships.

Fa'side is well situated for access to the Border Country in the south, across the Forth Road Bridge north to Perth and Inverness, and westwards to Glasgow, Stirling and the West Highlands. Close by are the lovely sandy beaches at Gullane, North Berwick and Dunbar, while inland the countryside is rich in agriculture.
