The Bus Stop may only be 30 minutes from Edinburgh, but staying there couldn’t feel further away from city life.
Located on a working farm near Gifford, in the heart of East Lothian, the magical destination includes nine handcrafted homes-from-home expertly fashioned inside the body of retired buses.
Suitable for couples looking for a romatic retreat or a small group of friends looking for a quiet weekend staycation away from it all, the buses contain numerous surprising features.Wood-burning stoves keep the fully-fitted kitchens, luxurious bathrooms, dining areas and lounges cozy, while a glass window above the bed means you can stargaze without leaving the bus.
Outside, there are plenty of seating areas, private decks and wood-fired hot tubs with views of the beautiful Lammermuir Hills.
