Family-friendly vacation rentals in Edinburgh Old Town

Great place to stay with perfect location - pretty much everywhere is walkable - and super flexible with checking in and out. Would definitely recommend

Great location for a little family like ours. Felt very safe and secure in the location, very peaceful. Few little issues which was swiftly dealt with by the guys and very quick to response. Beautiful surroundings. Great place to stay if you want to do day trips. Not far from Falkirk and Stirling and also only 30 mins drive from Edinburgh and Glasgow. Local access to shops only 3 mins away. Warm, cosy and homely. Comfy beds, great little kitchen area with all you need for a family stay. Hot tub is a great extra to have. Can’t recommend enough.

We had a fantastic stay at Martin and Charul's apartment and would definitely stay there again! From the moment of booking to departure communication was flawless and we felt very welcome. The apartment was clean, decorated beautifully and we had everything that we could have needed. The apartment is well situated and only a short walk to princes street and Edinburgh Waverley so the perfect location to explore the city.

Enjoyed our stay at such a creative and beautiful airbnb. It was a new experiencefor us staying in the countryside enjoying the sunset, BBQ, bathtub and feeding the animals. Sandy was a great host. She showed us around and helped us alot with our transportation. Much appreciation.

Michelle was wonderful. We had an overnight flight but were allowed to leave bags early and check in several hours earlier. Michelle was responsive and a great resource. Shower was a bit tricky to navigate, and could have used some extra towels but otherwise everything was as described. Had some trouble with the dryer our last day, but things break down so no big deal. We loved the location. Be prepared for City noise - some ear plugs took care of that! Would definitely recommend and stay again. Thanks for an awesome stay!

Loved the accommodation and Findley was great to deal with!

Beautiful house, very clean and perfect for our stay. Enjoyed the hot tub and lots of space for a big group. Kitchen stocked well for a big group (lots of glasses, cooking utensils etc). Beautiful location, thank you :)

Highly recommend Carol's listing. Great location and beautiful surroundings!

Location location location! Ideally placed to walk anywhere in Edinburgh city centre both old and new town

I stayed at this wonderful property for a few days right after getting married, kicking off my honeymoon while also showing my new in-laws some of the best parts of the UK. The entire family had a great time here—it’s clean, very spacious, and truly felt like home. We did run into a minor issue with a bathroom leak (a bit of bad luck on my part, I suppose), but the host was incredibly responsive and did everything they could to resolve it quickly. I really appreciate how it was handled and am grateful for the prompt attention. Overall, I highly recommend this lovely property. If I’m ever in Edinburgh again with family or friends, I’d definitely check if this place is available before considering other options in the Old Town area. A big thank you to the superhosts for your kindness, patience, and excellent communication in making sure everything went smoothly during our stay. 🙏🙏♥️

Beautiful big flat in a great location in Leith, which we love. Lots of restaurants, pubs, bakeries and the park. Very close to the tram, which makes city centre and the airport very easy. Had everything we needed for a great stay thanks.

Absolutely lovely place to stay. 2 lady professionals traveling for work and this was a fabulous stop over. Quiet, super comfortable, safe and a lovely welcome hamper on arrival: Highly recommend. There is a lovely beach/woodland walk to stretch weary car travelled legs as well. Thanks Julie - hope to be back one day

Deborah’s place was perfect. Just outside of the super busy but just inside the convenient walkability to everything. So much to do and explore all around. Bus stop right outside the front door if you need it. Deborah was fantastic at communicating with us from pre-checking in through to check out. We never had to guess or wonder about the place.

Axel’s place in Edinburgh was the perfect starting point in Scotland for my family and me. The apartment is located a few minutes from the city center by tram and has all the amenities you could wish for on your visit to Edinburgh. Axel himself was super proactive and more than responsive and accommodating of our wishes, even enabling us to check out a bit later than planned and making the start to the rest of our trip through Scotland a breeze. Overall, I would highly recommend Axel and his place to anyone visiting Edinburgh for a few days.

6 adults and 1 dog had a wonderful stay at Ronnie's. I highly recommend visiting. The home is beautiful, the location is perfect for exploring Edinburgh. We walked in, and got the bus too, both were super easy. So many lovely shops on the walk in. The house was just perfect, had everything we needed for cooking big family meals, the tv was great, the showers were amazing! Ronnie was flexible with check in and out and was there to greet us which was lovely. Super clean, and the kids were delighted with the mini boxes of cereals and biscuits - I think they probably ate every single packet it was such a novelty (they are adults too so clearly easily pleased!!). Definitely recommend, you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful little spot. Super clean and welcoming. The shower was lovely and the fireplace made it feel so warm and welcoming. Highly recomend staying here

It was my first experience in uk Edinburgh was amazing.

Nice big place. Clean and tidy. Nice little starter pack of bread milk etc left for us. Plenty of towels. Rooftop terrace with heating and use of pool. A lot of fobs and keys to use but plenty of copies provided for us. Feather pillows, would’ve preferred firmer, but that’s a personal preference. Lovely host.

We loved our stay in Priscilla, the caravan was in a lovely location at the back of the park overlooking the golf course. Dianne was very responsive and accommodating.

Absolutely beautiful, well-appointed flat. Fits all the of the amenities you could want into a lovely space that is walkable to different parts of the city. Would absolutely stay again!

Perfect location for attending a conference at Dynamic Earth. The apartment was spacious, exceptionally well presented and comfortable. Karin’s instructions were clear and concise. I cannot fault this booking in anyway and would put it at the top of my list for a return visit. Thanks Karin.👍

Beautiful place and host was great with amazingly quick responses. Caravan was nice, clean and had everything you need
