Amazing!

Every now and then you come across a place that is so amazing that you actually consider NOT recommending it to others just so you can keep it to yourself.This place is a slice of heaven. Comforable, cozy, clean with a full kitchen. Next to Portobello beach, which was perfect for morning strolls with Lorne rolls and a coffee in hand. Close enough to Edinburgh to do all the touristy stuff but far enough away to avoid the crowds.

Beautiful flat in great location.

Beautiful, clean and well equipped flat in the gorgeous Dean Village, just as described and close walk to Princes Street. Great welcome gift bag which was a lovely touch. Excellent communication with Susan (host) who was very helpful. Would love to stay here again when we return to Edinburgh.

Great location

Great apartment with everything you need. A bit noisy at night due to very central location and having windows open as was very warm when there.

Great property, great location

Stayed with our extended family for 4 nights in January 2023. The apartment is amazing and location is absolutely perfect for exploring Edinburgh. Close to buses, shops and some great coffee shops, we could not have asked for more.
