Fancy a break away, but can’t bear the thought of leaving your dog behind? We get it. 🐾

That’s why we’re pet-friendly, so your four-legged best friend can come along too. Pack the treats, bring their favourite blanket, and enjoy a getaway together.

After all, they’re part of the family 💚

Coming to Edinburgh for Pride this June? 🎉🌈

March, dance and celebrate but why not stay a little longer and slow things down afterwards with a midweek stay on the canal 🌊 ☀️

After busy days in the city, there’s something lovely about coming back to the water, feeding the ducks, watching the sunset and having a quieter corner of Edinburgh to return to 🚤

A few midweek stays are still available with very limited weekend availability over the summer ✨

Not sure what to get for Father’s Day?🧍‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Maybe it’s a weekend away in Edinburgh instead of another pair of socks or a last-minute gadget. Think canal-side walks, the city centre just minutes away, good food, a cold pint in the sun, giggles of kids on the boat, feeding the ducks and quality time together by the water 🌊

Book your stay directly via our website thefoursisters.co.uk 📆

Sometimes the best gifts are the moments you actually remember 💙

🌸 The Four Sisters cherry blossom walk 🌸

A gentle spring walk, all within easy reach of your stay 🌊💚

Start at the Meadows - the best spot in the city for cherry blossoms. Stop for a coffee along the way - the Meadows has plenty of great spots nearby ☕️

Then head into the Old Town and cut through Market Street where spring meets historic Edinburgh.

From there, walk down to Princes Street for blossom views with the castle in the background.

📍 All walkable
📍 Best in peak bloom (usually April–early May)

Save this for your Edinburgh trip, or share your favourite cherry blossom spot in the comments 🌸
