Prestonfield House Hotel
Magnificent 17th-century mansion with period features, set in its own 13 acres of gardens below Arthur's Seat with Highland cattle and peacocks strutting around. All this only five minutes from Princes Street. A new wing was added recently, increasing the number of rooms to 31.
