about Craigwell Cottage

Craigwell Cottage is part of the old Craigwell Brewery, which was established at North Back of Canongate in 1822. The building was renovated in the 1980's to form a mixture of townhouses, apartments and this semi-detached property. The architects who worked on the conversion were Nicholas Groves-Raines Architects, and they received a Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) Architecture Award in 1988 for the conversion.

Entering Craigwell Cottage through the main door, you will find the bathroom to the left, with the twin bedroom also to the left and the double bedroom ahead. Stairs to the right lead up to the first floor where there is an open plan living, dining and kitchen area with French windows on to balconies at the front and side of the property. Craigwell Cottage is equipped to sleep up to four adults and we can provide a travel cot free of charge. It should be noted however that once the travel cot is situated in the twin bedroom the space is restricted, and guests should take this into account when deciding if the property meets their needs. Bedding and towels (one bath towel and one hand towel per guest) are supplied, although guests are asked to bring their own bedding for the cot. Parking is immediately adjacent to the cottage in a private courtyard off the main street. There is access to a shared garden behind the townhouses on the opposite side of the courtyard.
