About this property

4-Bed Period Home Sleeps 8, Portobello Edinburgh | Walk to Beach | Parking

About the property

You’ll have the entire double upper flat to yourself, set across two spacious floors in a quiet part of Portobello.

The property has four bedrooms:
• Two bedrooms with king-size beds
• One bedroom with a double bed
• One bedroom with a single bed that converts into a king

There is one main bathroom and one bedroom with an en-suite, making it comfortable for sharing.

The flat is clean, bright, and spacious, with a fully equipped kitchen suitable for cooking and dining at home. A separate utility room with a washer and dryer is available for guest use. There is also access to a small private garden.

A travel cot with bedding is available on request.

Location

The flat is close to Portobello High Street and the beach, both within easy walking distance. The high street offers a great mix of independent cafes, shops, brunch spots, pubs, and a wine bar, while the promenade and beach are home to relaxed cafés and food places right by the sea.

Regular buses make it easy to reach Edinburgh city centre, whether you’re visiting the Old Town, New Town, or local attractions.

Good to know:

The flat is in a quiet residential area and suits families, couples, small groups, and relaxed breaks. It is not suitable for parties or events, and we ask guests to be respectful of neighbours. We request the garden be used only between 8am-8pm to ensure noise is limited for our neighbours.

Free on-street parking is available directly outside the property.

Property was nice. The couch is a bit of a disaster but other than that it was comfortable. They have a small patio outside but nowhere to sit to enjoy it. Within walking distance to multiple restaurants and an easy bus right into Edinburgh. We enjoyed our stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 25 July 2026
Thank you for your review and for choosing to stay with us. We’re really pleased you enjoyed the location and found it easy to get into Edinburgh, as well as having plenty of restaurants nearby. We also appreciate your feedback about the sofa. It’s something we’ll keep under review as we continue to make improvements to the apartment. Regarding the patio, we deliberately keep it fairly simple as it sits directly below our neighbours’ windows, and we want to be respectful of their peace and privacy. We’re glad you still enjoyed your stay overall, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back in the future.

We had a great time at this property and would absolutely stay here again. The location was fantastic, and the place was fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.While we encountered a couple of minor, typical travel hiccups, the host was incredibly friendly and responded immediately to resolve them. Her prompt communication and helpful attitude made all the difference. Highly recommended!
