The smell of salt air drifts up from the Firth of Forth, and from certain windows you'll catch why this place earned its name.
This is a hybrid setup — a traditional guesthouse with the addition of a camping pod or two, so you've got options depending on whether you fancy a proper bed or something a bit more outdoorsy. It suits couples after a city break with a coastal edge, or anyone using Edinburgh as a base who doesn't need to be right in the Old Town throng. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're travelling with one.
Facilities aren't detailed, so assume guesthouse basics rather than full campsite amenities — this leans more B&B than pitch-and-canvas. Campfires need checking on arrival; it's that kind of flexible, ask-when-you-get-here vibe. Open year-round, which makes it handy for Hogmanay or a winter weekend when most campsites have shut up shop. Quiet, practical, and a bit different from your standard Edinburgh digs.
