Great apartment and location.

Great stay with everything you need. The apartment is lovely and in a great location. Very clean too. Near lots of restaurants. Highly recommend the Magnum up the road but do book in advance. Just 2 extra points to be aware of, there are lots of stairs up to the apartment and parking is free on weekends but through the week it's pay to park.

Just Lovely

This property is just lovely and had everything we could possibly have needed. Edinburgh is especially busy at this time of year, and it was nice to be staying somewhere a little calmer and quiter, even though we were only a few streets back from Princes Street. Scott was a great host and let us drop our bags at the house when we arrived earlier in the day.

Perfect flat, perfect location

This apartment has everything - gorgeous style, cleanliness, beautifully comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen. Convenient to explore Edinburgh city centre either on foot or catch a bus (almost at the door). Cafes, restaurants and grocery store all within 5-10 minutes walk. Excellent communication from the owner who has very thoughtfully set this place up with everything you could need. The only problem was that we didn't get to spend more time at home enjoying the flat!

A delightful house in a central location

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay in Edinburgh. I would highly recommend the house as it was stylish and comfortable with everything you could want for a pleasant stay. Robin was an excellent host, being able to be contacted when needed and checking in to ensure all was in order. The house is conveniently located close to major attractions and good eateries.

Fantastic Stay!

The flat was fantastic for a large group! It’s central location made it so easy to get to the main sites of Edinburgh with so many great restaurant and bars in the immediate vicinity. The flat itself was spacious and clean and working with the owners was brilliant - they are great people and wouldn’t hesitate to come back and stay there again!
