I can think of few more enjoyable ways to spend a birthday than to be introduced to Thai cookery by a true expert with a passion for her subject and the most patient and gentle teaching manner. To then be able to go home and share the results of a carefully guided hand with an impressed and appreciative wife doubles the pleasure. Thank you for your kindness and making my birthday a memorable day for the best possible reasons

Ru and Ian are just fantastic. The house is really beautiful and my room is quite big and really clean (at least four stars hotel standard). The location is really convenient too, bus stop on sight and easily get to the city center. Ian is really really nice, he gave me a really great overview of the history of Edinburgh and pointed out many places to see, we had some nice talking during breakfast as well. Ru is so sweet and considering, moreover, really a good cook! Highly recommend this listing. Amazing value and experience!
