Rental Car
Guests, we recommend renting a car to make our journey from Edinburgh to the Isle of Skye and back. Driving in Scotland is easy but don't forget that you'll need to stay on the left side of the road. Public transportation in Edinburgh is superb so we won't be using or needing our cars until Monday morning. We encourage guests to set their rental car reservation for pick-up on Monday so your car isn't collecting dust during our time in Edinburgh.
Hotel
We'll be staying here while in Edinburgh, Saturday and Sunday night! The property is owned by Marriott and sits near the iconic Holyrood Park and provides walkability to the Old Town and New Town.
Hotel
Skeabost House Hotel, pronounced SKAY-BOAST, is a boutique hotel designed by award winning hotelier. Skeabost began life as a Victorian hunting lodge in 1871, but there has been a home of some sort at Skeabost since Viking times when the name meant The Sheltered House. GUESTS - Please contact Oskar ASAP to confirm your room at Skeabost. We have a block of rooms held for 30 days for our wedding. We will be at Skeabost Monday (3/25) night to Wednesday (3/27) night, checking out on Thursday morning (3/28).

Instead of driving directly back to Edinburgh to head back to the states, won't you join us in Glencoe?
