Location. Lovely walk along the Firth of Forth. Very practical for Edinburgh. Great food in the bar, on a Sunday early evening (last food orders 18h45), and great breakfast. Staff friendly and polite.

“Fantastic”
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was a good size and very clean, the bed large and comfy. Breakfast was excellent, fantastic choice, quality ingredients and well cooked. We had dinner as well which didn't disappoint, delicious. Loved the location, a quiet village with a lovely walk along the shore (dog loved it) but close to lots of places of interest.

“Lovely stay at charming Inn”
As we were driving through Aberlady before checking in, my friend commented on how cosy the hotel looked. I was glad to inform her that we were about to stay at just that hotel. And the hotel was such a gem, with friendly and very service minded staff. The rooms were very charming and had everything we needed for our stay. We also enjoyed the cosy bar, as well as the lovely breakfast. Would have liked to stay for another day.

“Warm, welcoming stay.”
We had an amazing stay, the people were absolutely lovely and extremely kind. We had a problem with our shower and were immediately given various solutions , overall an incredible stay where we felt very much at home and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and the staff was again so incredibly friendly and helpful. Will definitely be going back here. Lovely location as well not far from the coast.

“Great location, good food but the bedroom needed an update.”
This is an old fashioned Inn located in a very pleasant village next to the Firth of Forth with excellent coastal walks nearby. The overall ambience was good, the staff were friendly and efficient and our room was a good size. Our breakfast was well presented and of good quality as was our evening meal; the Caesar Salad was particularly good.

“Glad we booked here”
Great location and great view from our room. The room itself is spacious, comfortable and perfectly clean with the most comfortable bed ever. What an absolutely night's sleep! Food and service was first class. Dinner the previous evening delivered promptly, well presented and really nicely cooked - restaurant is well recommended. Now for the Breakfast - oh my word! Using local produce this was the perfect start to the day this was the highest quality and a must to have - well done!!! Do we have any negative thoughts or comments - absolutely NOT. Would we rebook - absolutely YES.

Very clean room. We were late booking and they were very accommodating, upgraded our room with more space. It was just what we needed from a long day. Breakfast was very good and included in the price. Lovely decor with artwork from local artists. Very pleasant overnight.

“Cosy, clean and delicious food!”
The room was lovely, immaculately clean with crisp white bed linen. The huge, fluffy bath sheets were the best towels I ever used in a hotel. Breakfast was delicious and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The purpose of our stay was to attend a birthday party in nearby Port Seton and had another event to attend the next morning so didn't get to spend much time but would love to return for a relaxing stay over with dinner and a wander around Aberlady.
