This was a lovely, unique stay! Room was small but comfortable for a single night, and the bathroom was nicely updated.
The building is old, so noise travels easily, but earplugs at night helped prevent being woken up throughout the night.
Would recommend this stay for a short-term visit in a beautiful area!

Located on a quiet street and next to a historic castle this place was perfect. It had character and historic charm our room had a view of the castle and I felt like I was in a fairytale. The staff was lovely and we got to meet the owner Stephen m! who is wonderful and answers any questions and helps you with anything you need. They have a lovely little breakfast for $10 and make sure that you carve out some time to tour the castle next-door! Cannot wait to return, wonderful stay

What a lovely, comfortable property! The view of the castle was so lovely and the location was convenient to downtown. Loved the original switches, trim and window coverings.
Wasn’t sure if the slippers were recommended (should we have removed our shoes?). Information on breakfast would be helpful to include in the welcome email.
Such a lovely stay - thank you!

This was a very nicely furnished property in the Rockland neighborhood. The only negative about The Craigmyle is that its walls are quite thin and you can hear everyone's coming and goings.
