About this property
Delightful city-centre maindoor flat - bright and sunny with private courtyard
You'll be in Edinburgh's most splendid Georgian location amidst this UNESCO World Heritage site. Here the grand façade is arranged around a lavish circular garden, with restricted road access affording it a surreal sense of calm and silence - perhaps best appreciated after dark under the New Town's atmospheric white street lights. Despite the peace, bohemian Stockbridge is a delightful 5 minute walk along cobbled streets, whilst George Street's high-end shops and venues are similarly close by to the south. Accessed via a private gate down a short stone staircase, the front door can be found opening onto a sunny but sheltered courtyard which is a magical spot for al-fresco breakfasting or evening drinks. Once inside the open-plan layout is clean, comfortable and fully-equipped for your stay, with enough period features (high skirting boards and working shutters) to remind you where you are.

The hosts are incredibly welcoming, helpful and gracious. Thoughtful instructions, suggestions and supplies. The apartment is decorated in perfect style. I would return anytime. I visited in January and it was cozy and a super location.
Absolutely fabulous stay and accommodations, with terrific communications from our thoughtful hosts. The flat is tastefully designed, with everything we needed. We would absolutely stay here again!
Excellent accommodation, location, and host! The property is within walking distance to restaurants and attractions, yet a few blocks away from the main roads, making it a quieter and more relaxing stay. Highly recommend.

Home from home so many extra thoughtful touches that made for a perfect stay
This is a gem property in the heart of Edinburgh’s hip Stockbridge area. Fantastic restaurants and friendly local pubs are within walking distance. Martin and Weng are excellent hosts, adding that “extra touch” of thoughtfulness for a warm and comfortable stay.
Beautiful flat in walking distance to downtown Edinburgh. Delightful owner, who stocked the kitchen with some food and snacks. Great information provided on check in and check out and everything in the flat.
If you're looking for a place with all of the comforts of home, then this is the flat for you. Situated on a quiet street yet in close walking distance of everything you want to experience in Edinburgh. The owners are incredibly thoughtful and kind. I cannot say enough great things about this property - and I have stayed twice and hope to return again.
Located within easy walking distance to Edinburgh city center, including old town and many great restaurants, shopping, and tourist attractions. Apartment was spotlessly clean and everything necessary for a perfect stay was provided. Can't recommend this apartment enough!
The apartment was spot on, clean, great location, well stocked kitchen, quiet. The hosts were beyond diligent at responding to any inquiries. Cannot recommend this place enough.
Great place in a beautiful and quiet part of town. Very comfortable and well equipped. Hosts were very helpful, and made check in easy. Would happily return and would recommend to any couple.
Moray Place was delightful for our first visit to Edinburgh. Perfect location, excellent accommodations and thoughtful correspondence with owners. Thank you!
This is a wonderful apartment for a couple, very comfortable and luxurious. The location is great for getting around Edinburgh both on foot and by public transport. The hosts Martin and Weng are very welcoming.
The apartment was perfect for our needs. Beautifully set out, very well curated and a pleasure to come back to after a day of exploring. Some lovely treats awaited us on arrival which we really appreciated. A greatLocation for the city and our favourite place, Stockbridge. We really recommend a stay here. Thanks!
Everything about this place is amazing —the location is great, the flat itself is cozy, and the hosts are so kind! We were able to walk from the tram station, which made transport from the airport easy, and the area felt safe as well. The hosts were very responsive and provided us with everything we needed, from check-in info ahead of time to snacks and drinks when we got there! Cannot recommend this flat enough and would stay again in a heartbeat!
Good location, safe area.
A lot of amenities, kitchen very well equipped, basic produces provided.
Well designed, installations in very good condition.
Easy communication with host.
I highly recommend this venue.
The flat is outstanding! It is so well designed -- such a thoughtful and creative space -- so beautiful! It was the perfect getaway for our time in Edinburgh. Our hosts thought of everything, from a warm welcome to a cozy stay. We felt so lucky to have found this spot!
This is the best designed flat I have been in. The rooms flow into each other and the design has no wasted space. Very comfortable furniture, the kitchen is easy to work in for 2 people. Over the sink you look out to a charming courtyard The owners thought of everything you could possibly need. They were great to deal with and made the stay stay easy. Location is wonderful and convenient to the historic sites. A great walking city!
What an amazing cozy place to stay in Edinburgh! Everything was top notch and welcoming. Martin and Weng are excellent hosts who really helped us with anything we needed. Response time was quick and informative. The space was comfortable and welcoming with attention to detail. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare breakfast before our days out exploring. We would definitely recommend! Thank you Martin and Weng.
The only reason we gave the flat a 5 star rating is because Vrbo doesn’t allow you to go any higher! The flat is absolutely stunning and perfectly manicured. It is located in the most desirable part of Edinburgh. You are walking distance from Old and New Town, along with desirable areas such as Stockbridge. Also, the hosts (Martain & Weng) have detailed instructions about every aspect of the flat. They also made themselves available to answer any questions we had. If that isn’t enough, we were welcomed with a thoughtful gift basket of goodies from them to enjoy during our stay. I can’t recommend this flat enough. 11/10 rating and this is the only place we will stay when we come back.
I have stayed in a number of properties and rented from multiple so called super hosts. This was definitely my best experience . The property is lovely . In a great historic upscale neighborhood walking distance to all of the attractions and great restaurants. The communication with the hosts was the best that I have ever had. If this apartment is booked for your travel dates and you have some flexibility , I would strongly advise you to alter your travel dates so you can experience a stay in this property.
From our first communication with our hosts to our final farewell, our 5-day stay was wonderful. Great location. Took the tram from airport and walked 15 minutes to the flat. Loved the Stockbridge neighbourhood for restaurants, pubs and shops. We walked to all the city attractions which are also easily accessed by local transit or a short taxi ride away. The flat is beautiful, quiet, clean, comfortable and well equipped throughout. After long days of exploring, we always looked forward to coming home. This truly felt like home rather than just a place to stay. Thank Martin & Weng!
Hands down the best VRBO we have stayed at, super comfortable and clean. Above and beyond with the personalized welcome card and supplies that absolutely came in super handy after a really long day of travel. The communication with the host (Martin & Weng) was absolutely perfect. the unit is located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood but still close to everything. My favorite thing about the neighborhood is this small cheese and meat shop IJ Mellis Cheese monger.
Thank you Martin & Weng.
Gracious, responsive hosts. Excellent instructions which made everything easy! Comfortable and personal décor. Fully equipped kitchen and many thoughtful details throughout. Martin and Weng were great. We loved meeting them and staying here! Very well located- 10 minutes walk to the airport bus, 5 minutes to local neighborhood shopping with an excellent cheese shop, wine shop, Swedish bakery and many options for restaurants, pubs and shopping! Very walkable to the sites of Edinburgh. Highly recommend!
