Sherwood Guest House occupies the ground and first floors of an early nineteenth-century terraced townhouse on Minto Street, a short walk from the Royal Commonwealth Pool and Arthur's Seat. Six individually decorated bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, are let on a bed-and-breakfast basis, with a continental breakfast served each morning and options available for guests with food intolerances. Rooms vary considerably in size, reflecting the layout of the original house, and each is fitted with tea and coffee-making facilities, a small fridge and a television. The guest house is independently run rather than part of a hotel group, with direct booking handled by the owners. Minto Street's terraces are typical of the tenemented streets built up around Newington during the Victorian expansion of the southern suburbs.
