Hi! I'm Philip , your local host based in beautiful Leith, Edinburgh. I’m passionate about creating comfortable, well-designed spaces where guests can relax, recharge, and feel right at home — whether you’re here for a quick city break, a work trip, or an extended stay.
I’ve lived in the area for 9 so I’m happy to share local tips — from the best coffee spots and restaurants along The Shore to hidden gems in Edinburgh’s Old Town.
As a host, I aim to provide a smooth, hassle-free experience. I respect your privacy but am always available if you need anything during your stay. Cleanliness, clear communication, and a personal touch are at the heart of what I offer.
Looking forward to welcoming you soon!
The Shore, Leith – A historic and scenic waterfront district in Leith, the port area of Edinburgh, Scotland. It's known for:
Charming cobbled streets and converted warehouses. Michelin-starred restaurants like The Kitchin. Trendy bars, cafes, and the Water of Leith.
A Port with Royal Ties
Leith has been Edinburgh’s port for over 600 years.
The Royal Yacht Britannia, once the Queen's floating palace, is permanently moored at Ocean Terminal in Leith. It hosted Winston Churchill, Nelson Mandela, and multiple U.S. Presidents.
Michelin-Starred Dining in a Shipyard
The Shore is home to several Michelin-star restaurants, including The Kitchin, where you can dine in a converted whisky warehouse just steps from the water.
Edinburgh’s “Little Amsterdam”
Locals sometimes compare The Shore to Amsterdam due to its cobbled streets, canals (the Water of Leith), and 17th-century buildings.
You'll find colourful houseboats and picturesque bridges right in the city.
Whisky & Beer Renaissance
Leith is home to new-age distilleries and craft breweries, like the Port of Leith Distillery — the tallest vertical distillery in the world (opened in 2023).
A Movie & TV Backdrop
The Shore has appeared in Trainspotting, Outlander, and various detective dramas. Its gritty-meets-glam vibe is a hit with film crews.
