Cozy Mount Erskine Guesthouse is located on the fringe of Georgetown, just a 12 minutes drive to Penang Rd, the heart of the city. The UNESCO heritage sites are located in the city centre, a living musuem with old shophouses, government buildings, old colonial offices, temples, mosques, forts, clock towers and even a preserved tramway track along Penang Road. These sites are dotted with museums and interesting street art and lovely murals reflecting the culture of the Penangites, drawn by artist from Lithuania, Ernest Zacharevic. The guesthouse is centrally located, midpoint between Georgetown and the northern beach areas. It is easy to access the coastal roads of Tanjong Tokong, Tanjong Bungah and Batu Ferringhi, the northern seaside and beach attractions in northern Penang. Being in the northeastern area of Penang is to be in the most developed part of the island. It is just minutes from Gurney Drive, Botanic Gardens, Youth Park, Pulau Tikus market, Temple of the Sleeping Buddha and Hilltop Lord Murugan temple, touted to be the largest outside India. And if Penang street food is your draw, then Goodall Café (Gottlieb Rd and Tanjong Tokong), Gurney Drive hawker centre and Pulau Tikus hawker centres serve the whole range of what Penang is well-known for.

The guesthouse is a traditional Chinese house with a big compound shared with a couple of neighbours, located in a Chinese kampong. There are tropical fruit trees, spices and herbs and ornamental plants in the compound just like the kampong of yesteryears.
