The Tower

At the top of the 14th century old tower lies a vaulted Vacation Rental Bedroom Suite ideal for a romantic get-away and breaks to Edinburgh. The steep spiral staircase leads up past a glass walkway over the old dungeon and up to to a roof top walkway with panoramic views over the Firth of Forth. Why not enjoy a leisurely breakfast on the roof walk on a nice sunny morning? The Bedroom Suite Holiday Rental had an en suite bathroom with stand-alone slipper bath. The bed is an enormous 7 foot wide 'Emperor' bed and their is a TV with DVD player in the Great Hall. A microwave, mini-fridge, kettle and toaster are provided within the bedroom suite.

Guests staying in the Tower Vaults also have exclusive use of the finest room in the castle, the Great Hall. This magnificent old room has an original stone built fireplace with a log-burning stove, perfect for winter evenings. Beside the window there are stone window seats built into the thick castle walls. In the corner of the room are what remains of the now inaccessible old staircase.

Up on the ceiling are some of the original corbels from when the castle was destroyed by fire after the Battle of Pinkie. Behind the tartan curtain is an original stone toilet called the "Laird's Lug" where the Lairds could listen to their prisoners down in the dungeon. A continental breakfast is provided for guests to enjoy in this Vacation Travel Bedroom Suite Rental at their leisure.

From Edinburgh head east on the A1 towards Berwick upon Tweed. About 9 miles east of the city centre follow the signs to Wallyford and Dalkeith (A6094). At the top of the sliproad turn right, signposted Whitecraig. Two hundred yards after crossing the carriageway turn left onto a minor country road which has no signpost. Fa'side is about 1.5 miles up this road. Fa'side Estate is only 10 miles from Edinburgh which allows for easy access to this beautiful city.
