Vivienne was very helpful and full of information! The house is lovely and right on the bus line to take you to the major attractions (and hop on hop off busses). It’s even walkable. The room was small, but functional, as advertised. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Edinburgh!

Our host, Vivienne, was phenomenal! The Sherwood house is a beautiful property and obviously well cared for. The bed was comfortable and we had a large bathroom in our room. There is a bus stop just a few feet from the property. We will definitely stay here again.

This is a beautiful guest house well driven by Vivienne, her nice owner :)
Hurry to book your visit of the Castle ... additionnally, Holyrood Palace is also a must see. Take Lothian day tickets. On our side, we used the Moon app. to have a taxi to and from the airport.

Our family of 3 stayed at the Sherwood Inn for 2 nights. It was perfect! Breakfast was delicious. It was our 3 year olds favorite meal of the day both days in Edinburgh. The room was very comfortable for the 3 of us with very high ceilings and a nice en suite. I hope we find ourselves with more time in Edinburgh again sometime and we will definitely be staying here again. Thank you, Vivienne!

This is a fantastic place to stay. I read all of the 5 star reviews and they are absolutely true, I can definitely recommend staying here. Vivienne is a really friendly, knowledgeable and helpful host and we felt so welcomed from the moment we arrived. It's in a perfect position to explore Edinburgh and the local pubs are brilliant for food and drinks. It's a really comfortable guest house and the breakfast is perfect to start the day.
I can really recommend staying at Sherwood Guest House and I would certainly book again.

Vivienne was an amazing host and her place was exactly as advertised. She made recommendations the entire trip and we took her up on every one of them and it absolutely made our trip. Highly recommend her place to anyone. My son forgot his toy there and she even drove it to the airport for us so he didn’t leave it behind. Incredible woman

I cannot say enough nice things about Vivienne and her wonderful guest house. The bedrooms are terrific, as are the breakfasts and the hospitality. You'll want for nothing -- she's already considered what you need. There's a reason this place has such high marks -- Vivienne.
We had an issue that required a lot of special attention, and she was brilliant. She's running a first-class establishment, and she is hard-wired to be a guest house owner. Plus, you won't meet a friendlier human. Everything about Sherwood Guest House has it on our list of places we will stay again. Thank you, Vivienne!
