We loved our stay at Juniperlea Inn, the owners Carly and Graeme were exceptional hosts, both very friendly and great people. The Inn had a very homely feeling and the accommodation was large and very clean, comfy bed, couldn't have asked for more.
They have a great chef whose meals were excellent. Highly recommend

My family and I absolutely loved this B & B. Everything was done to a high standard, the staff were amazing and great with my two little ones. The food they do as well was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay, just outside of Edinburgh. Carly, the owner is so lovely and friendly too. I honestly can't recommend this place enough! Thanks for a great stay 🙂

Great wee pod with great add ons like milk etc. in the fridge and a wee speaker. Super clean, everything in perfect condition and was just super relaxing! The one thing I would say is 10am checkout is a little early and 11 would be better but still a 10/10 stay!

great pit stop
After the Edinburgh bypass, a very welcome overnight stop off. Wonderful welcome & a good pub grub refuelling!
Check the Soutra Aisle site 2km south - v poorly maintained - but a fascinating story of the start of medieval medicine leading to Edinburgh's strong medical school background

A cozy stay
The pod is so cozy and perfect for a few days away. As an American family we are a little more used to larger beds but the smaller scale beds seemed to be the usual in Scotland. Carly was very helpful and personable. Their restaurant was delicious. Hot tub is an extra bonus. We loved everything and recommend Juniperlea Inn! Btw we did hire a car and parked at Wallyford park and ride when going to Edinburgh.

Comfortable stay
Nice room and very comfortable bed. Small touches like coffee maker and fresh milk in the fridge were nice. Only thing I could mark it down on was some black mould around the bath taps and shower screen which should really have been spotted by whoever cleans the bathroom. Otherwise excellent and will definitely stay here again if visiting Edinburgh.

Cozy room
The room was cozy and comfortable. The staff was very nice and friendly and there was a nice selection of snacks and breakfast items in our room. Dinner in the restaurant was very good and the bar was good too. Our only complaint was that there was no WIFI for our entire stay which made it difficult for planning some activities due to the fact everything is booked online these days.

Nice small inn and only a short drive to Edinburgh … the room was clean and comfortable and independently accessible when the main area was shut. We used the in house restaurant and found the food and service top notch. No complaints there at all.
Only niggle the inn is on a busy main road and we had the room closest to the main road so had road noise - personally that doesn’t bother us but i would assume noise sensitive guests would have an issue with it..

Almost 5*
Overall view …. Good. The only disappointing part was on arrival we were told that there was no breakfast. On our booking form FREE BREAKFAST was listed but told there was not going to be one. Having said that… we were supplied a free continental after much debating.
Still overall …. I would very much recommend this establishment as all were friendly and the evening food we sampled was lovely.

We decided to stay overnight at The Juniperlea Inn on our way to Edinburgh. This place is only a 30-minute drive from the city center. The room was excellent, the food delicious, and the staff lovely.
We will definitely consider staying there again when visiting Edinburgh.
