Parkhead House

When you arrive, the signposts show you the way to key locations from the filming of the "Outlander" series, and the parlor has multiple pictures of the author and the actors with the proprietors. The parlor is comfy, a living room feeling with overstuffed chairs and couches. Out the windows, you can see both sheep and long-antlered deer grazing. The bedroom is sumptuous, with lots of touches such as hot water bottles, slippers, and robes. The overall feel is that you are visiting family and they are really happy to see you. Our last trip to Scotland ended here, but our next trip will start at the Parkhead House.

We opted to stay here for our final night, being close proximity to the Edinburgh airport, after tourning Edinburgh, Western Highlands and Isle of Skye for 9 days. Looking retrospect, I'd opt to not stay in downtown Edinburgh at all but would have stayed here and taking public transportation in for day trips. James was a great host and we loved talking with him about Outlander series (being filmed in the local area). We stayed in the 1st floor suite which was very large with multiple rooms. The rural country road is very quiet, with no traffic at all for a very peaceful night sleep. Its a perfect quaint and quiet B&B in a nice setting. Highly recommend.

Amazing hospitality, large private sitting area, large bedroom. Every amenity was provided with wonderfully friendly hosts. An information book provided valuable information about transportation options. There is even an optional Outlander tour by James, the host, showing the areas of filming of the show, all which quite near by.

There’s a reason Parkhead House is rated 1 out of 4 for a stay in South Queensferry. I’ve traveled all over the world to some wonderful B&Bs & I’ve never experienced the care & attentiveness that we received from James & Angela. Besides being absolutely lovely accommodations and beautiful grounds, there was not a detail overlooked! I was with a friend on this trip but my husband & I are already talking about a return trip to Scotland; we had no intentions of going back to the Edinburgh area again but are going to JUST so we can stay at Parkhead House!

Stayed at Parkhead House for 2 wonderful nights in March. James was the perfect host and tour guide. The accommodation was spotless, cosy & comfortable. Plenty of choice for our breakfast each morning. Parkhead House is a few miles out of town and both nights we drove into South Queensferry for dinner. Would love to stay again when we next visit Edinburgh.

Parkhead House is a delight beyond measure. You will quickly feel right at home in this fantastic Scottish Countryside establishment. Every detail has been thought through and provided for - It’s truly magical. The hosts are some of the kindest people on the planet, and it’s clear they take pride in their livlihood. We couldn’t have been happier spending time here and are already planning our return. 10 stars and a bottle of Scotch - it simply doesn’t get any better.
