As everyone else heads for the country, why not experience the delights of a trip to Edinburgh this summer.
A city where ancient and modern merge seamlessly: medieval alleys connect contemporary buildings and ‘new’ Scottish cuisine meets traditional Scottish hospitality. Our weekend itinerary will let you discover the highlights, uncover a few secrets and learn new skills, while still giving you time to kick back, relax and unwind.
FRIDAY
4 pm: Check-in
Check-in for a 3-night stay at 94DR… The house’s charm will immediately draw you in. You’ll be greeted with welcome drinks by your host for a brief house orientation and a chance to ask any questions and arrange the finer details for your stay.
Relax and unpack before joining the rest of your group at pre supper cocktails. We’re loving Negroni’s right now.
Supper at your Edinburgh home.
We’ll have arranged a delicious two-course supper to be prepared and ready for you to heat & serve. So you’ll have plenty of time to catch up and relax together.
