Layout

There is a magical quality to the light in this apartment that imbues a sense of calm and the elegant and hugely spacious interior complements the ambiance wonderfully. The interior has warm neutral furnishings, complementing the sunny tones of the wooden floors. There are touches of African, Global and Scottish art which give the apartment a delightfully exotic yet homely feel.

Local Area

This area is part of the original plans for the New Town designed by James Craig. He implemented a grid-style pattern to make travel around the area as simple as possible. His portrait is hanging in the near by National Portrait Gallery. With plenty of lovely little lanes and mews houses you can spend an afternoon looking around, and local grassy areas you will never be short of things to do. There are lovely local restaurants like Stac Polly which offer Modern Scottish Cuisine and bars such as The Stand Comedy Club which offers live comedy shows.

Clean, spacious and well located
Loved the space for our six person group; three large bedrooms w/multi-bath, sizable kitchen, dining room and common area. Location was around a 20 minute walk from the Royal Mile. Place has everything you would need for a short/long family vacation around Scotland.

Glorious flat
This was exactly what we wanted for a family vacation in Edinburgh. Great location a block from Tesco and a short walk to the Royal Mile, Castle and all the rest. 3+ meter high ceilings, large comfy living room. Three big bedrooms with two beautiful bathrooms. An old property, the living and dining rooms have apparently original, now decorative, fireplaces. Separate washer and dryer are better than the standard multipurpose European laundry unit. Drip and Nespresso coffee makers in the flat. Possibly the most beautiful flat I’ve stayed in as a VRBO. Be mindful of the four flights of stairs up to the flat, but it was definitely worth it and I had two 70+ seniors with me.
