Heading to Edinburgh for festival season and looking for a great place to stay a little way away from the city’s crowds? Get a little way out of the centre to Edinburgh Festival Glamping, tucked away in the walled garden at the peaceful Merchiston Castle estate. This gorgeous setting is an easy 10 minutes' drive from the city centre, with local bus services also making it easy to travel around. That means it’s a fine spot for those planning to take in events at Edinburgh’s summer festivals or just tour the sights of the city they call ‘Auld Reekie’. Away from the busy city streets you’ll feel like you're living in a little secret garden here – and a peaceful one too, with no amplified music allowed during the quiet hours of 10pm to 7am. There’s 24-hour security to keep guests nice and safe, and there are other safety rules in place too (such as barbecues being kept to designated areas and smoking, vaping and open fires not being allowed within five metres of the tents). Speaking of the tents, they're designed to make life nice and easy for guests – each of the five-metre bell tents sleeps up to four, with beds, bedding and pillows provided (just remember to bring your own towels…). The tents are lockable for extra peace of mind, and you can bring your own padlock or buy one at check-in. Shared facilities include toilets, showers, wifi, car parking, a charging zone for your gadgets and a campfire area for chilled evenings of stoking the flames.

Dette sier kundene

Gjestene roser jevnlig de rene, velutstyrte teltene og komfortable sengene. Beliggenheten trekkes frem som utmerket, med gode transportforbindelser og vakre omgivelser. Fasiliteter som dusjer, toaletter, WiFi og en frokostvogn er generelt godt mottatt. Området oppmuntrer til sosialt samvær med bålplasser og spill. Problemer som sporadiske musikkforstyrrelser, dusjrenslighet og tilgjengelighet, samt behov for tydeligere kommunikasjon om parkeringsavgifter, er nevnt, der ledelsen bekrefter tiltak for å adressere disse punktene.

Likte New and well put-up tents which were clean, comfortable sleeping, good facilities (toilets, showers, wifi, firepit, etc.). Relatively peaceful on site, which is so important. Lovely setting, and a good location with easy bus connections.

Likte ikke There was blaring music when we arrived Tues 19 Aug from the central campsite speaker, which went on until 10.30pm, despite a campsite rule of quiet from 10am. The showers blocked and water overflowed, and needed more attention to either prevent blocking, or deblock them or clean them better. I also thought the £3 parking charge was a bit unnecessary given the overall cost.

Anbefal til venner Besøker gjerne igjen

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the comfort of our new tents, the peaceful setting, and the facilities on site – it’s great to know these helped make your stay enjoyable.

We’re very sorry about the music disturbance when you arrived – this is not typical of our site and we will ensure the quiet hours policy is upheld more consistently in future. Thank you also for highlighting the shower issue; we’ve since increased the frequency of checks and maintenance to keep them in better condition for all guests.

Regarding parking, the small charge helps us with the upkeep of the grounds and facilities, but we’ll keep reviewing this to make sure it feels fair and transparent.

We really appreciate your comments as they help us improve, and we’d love to welcome you back for an even smoother stay next time.

A great option for the Fringe, clean, and easy to get into the City

Likte Nice new tent, Good matrsss and bedding. We had good weather so the nights were not too cold.
BBQ and relnxing area much appreciated.

Likte ikke Showers were always muddy. Of course you cannot prevent that with the wet terrain. Why not add a few floor squeegees, for the guests to use. Happy to clean up my own shower floor for the next guest.

Anbefal til venner Besøker gjerne igjen

Fra bestyreren: Thank you so much for your feedback - we’re glad you enjoyed the tent, bedding, and the relaxing BBQ area!

Regarding the showers, we clean them a minimum of twice a day, but as you mentioned, with the natural terrain there can still be some residue from guests in between cleans. Your suggestion about adding floor squeegees is a great idea, and we’ll look at providing these so everyone can help keep the area fresh for the next person.

We really appreciate your comments and hope to welcome you back again soon!

Likte ikke It was not made clear prior to arrival that there was a small charge for parking. I don’t mind the charge, it was small, but think it should have been communicated prior to arrival.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you so much for your lovely feedback – we’re really glad you enjoyed the facilities, space, and easy access to transport. 😊

We really appreciate you highlighting the point about the parking charge. You’re absolutely right – this should be made clearer before arrival, and we’ll make sure the information is updated so future guests know in advance. Thanks again for staying with us, and we’d love to welcome you back!
