    Honestly, what a brilliant experience for our first visit! Every single member of staff was so lovely, welcoming and accommodating. It’s been such a long time since we’ve felt this welcome somewhere in Edinburgh when visiting with children. The team took the time to ask about the children’s needs and went above and beyond to make sure we were all comfortable. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their thoughtfulness really made the experience special. The food was absolutely outstanding too! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will most definitely be back. Thank you for making our visit so lovely!
