Dunstane Houses

Top choice in Edinburgh


Dunstane House and its companion, Hampton House, are large Victorian villas dating from the 1860s but totally refurbished in 2017. Gorgeous modern styling complements the many original features, including period fireplaces, stained-glass windows and ornate cornices. The rooms are individually decorated with designer fabrics and wallpapers, while the luxury suites have four-poster beds, chaise longues and roll-top copper baths.
