The property is in a great walkable area, close to attractions and bars with great Scottish music. Loading area right in front of house made it easy with luggage. House is historical so it’s interesting but very comfortable.

Clean. Comfortable beds and linens. A unique stay in an old home, nicely updated on the inside. Location is fantastic. Easy walk to many restaurants and pubs. Just one block from the River front with nice walks up and down the River with beautiful views. Some happy noise as people returned from being out for the evening - not bothersome

Nothing Better than Jacobite's Retreat!

I cannot say enough good things about this property and the owners. They are so responsive. They allowed us to checkin early. They communicated with us on two separate occasions. We messed up the hot water unit, and were so patient and helpful getting it restored. We were a lot to deal with and they helped us around every corner. The location could not be better.
