Fantastic tour from Maddy (and your colleague too, sad to say I didn't catch her name). Very interesting and some great artifacts and local history

Visited on open day. Normally one has.to book and it has very limited opening times.
An awesome house tour, excellent story-teller, dedicated staff, gorgeous ancient Georgian house full of info and unique artifacts, next to the beautiful Old South Leith Parish church running in abundance of adorable scurrilous squirrels.
