I was able to easily upgrade to an en-suite room, and the premises were very near the location I had to get to. The owners were great, helping me source a taxi and giving me some extra milk for my coffee addiction. There was a fridge and a cooker...

Company information

​Jamie was born and raised right here in Musselburgh. The very building that now hosts Musselburgh Links B&B was once his family home — a space filled with memories, stories, and a deep connection to the community.  After taking over the property from his parents, Jamie initially transformed it into a safe space supporting those facing homelessness. Today, it has been lovingly renovated into a welcoming B&B for travellers from around the world. A passionate traveller himself, Jamie brings a thoughtful, personal touch to every guest’s stay — combining local knowledge, warm hospitality, and a genuine love for sharing the beauty of Musselburgh and East Lothian.

Property information

Musselburgh Links B&B is a beautifully renovated, family-run guesthouse with a unique story. Once the childhood home of the owner, Jamie, the property blends personal history with modern comfort. Each room is thoughtfully styled with calming colours, soft tartan textures, and high-quality furnishings to reflect the charm of coastal East Lothian. Guests love the warm, personal feel of the property — from the freshly stocked in-room fridges with complimentary drinks and snacks, to the crisp bed linen, soft towels, and tasteful Scottish touches throughout. Two of the rooms share a stunning family bathroom with a freestanding bath and walk-in shower, perfect for families or groups. The third room offers complete privacy with its own fully equipped kitchen and en-suite bathroom — ideal for longer stays or added independence. We aim to make every guest feel at home with small touches that make a big difference — local knowledge, flexible check-in where possible, and a warm welcome every time.

Neighbourhood information

Guests love staying on North High Street in Musselburgh for its perfect balance of charm, convenience, and coastal atmosphere. This historic part of town is just a short stroll from Musselburgh Harbour and the beach, offering scenic walks and stunning sunrise views over the Firth of Forth. The neighbourhood is home to the world’s oldest golf course, a must-see for golf enthusiasts, and just minutes from Musselburgh Racecourse, one of Scotland’s premier sporting venues. Local pubs, cafés, bakeries, and family-run restaurants line the high street, making it easy to sample traditional Scottish food and hospitality. For those wanting to explore further, Portobello Beach is just 2km away, and Edinburgh city centre can be reached by bus or train in under 10 minutes — ideal for day trips to museums, galleries, festivals, and shopping on Princes Street. North High Street combines the feel of a peaceful seaside town with quick, easy access to city life — which is exactly why guests keep coming back.
