When is the Best Time to Visit Edinburgh?
Edinburgh can work in every season. Summer (June to August) features pleasant weather (for Scotland, don't get me wrong it will probably rain) and lively festivals like the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo. Spring and autumn offer milder weather (but will still rain) and fewer crowds, making exploration more relaxed. Winter, with its Christmas markets and decorations, brings a touch of magic to the city (and more rain).
Where to Stay?
For family-friendly and budget-friendly stays, consider hostels, budget hotels, or highly-rated properties available on booking.com. Airbnb options may also suitable, finding family rooms isn't always easy.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
The Boston Tribe Travels
Hi 👋 We are a full time travel family who have been exploring and worldschooling with our 2 kids since July 2022. Before taking on the digital nomad life we lived in Borneo for 5 years, Cyprus and South Korea. We are originally from the UK and have made travel a priority for most of our lives. We love sharing the adventure with our children now and hopefully these guides can help take away some of the stress, planning time and uncertainty so that YOU can focus on your next adventure.
We hope you enjoy our guides, we try to share all the highlights, following HOURS of planning and preparation, so that you don't have to. Trust us, we understand all the challenges of travelling with children and have compiled all these guides with the kids at the forefront of our planning.
We share our experiences on instagram @Boston_tribe_travels and on our website www.bostontribetravels.com where you will find our blog, travel tips and loads more insights into family travel.
