A fabulous stay

What a sensational find right in the heart of the Shambles area of York - I couldn't recommend the property more highly. The stairs might be a bit of trouble to those with lots of luggage but we each helped each other both up & down but the stay was well & truly worth it particularly to experience a period home with every mod con you could wish for. 11 out of 10

Very comfortable and convenient apartment

For family had a great stay! It’s a well appointed apartment with comfortable, though firm, beds. The location can’t be beat. Whether getting a perfect haircut at the barber downstairs (the Changing Room), a delicious meal at the Spanish Butcher, Oxford Bar around the corner, or coffee from across the street, we barely had to leave the block! We will be back :)

Perfect stay

My family enjoyed staying at the apartment very much. So much charm with modern amenities. It was super comfortable for five of us. The kitchen had everything a cook needs. The location was superb, so close to everything. Lots of pubs and restaurants to chose from in the area. Communication with the owner was clear and easy. Highly recommend! We loved staying here and will gladly book again!

Perfect Edinburgh Location!

William has a wonderful flat in the most perfect location!! Outside the front door you have views to Edinburgh Castle and we were able to walk everywhere during our stay we walked to The Castle, George Street, Princess Street/Gardens, Dishoom and St James Wuarter. It is so central. Plus the kitchen is well stocked and we enjoyed making breakfast each morning plus got provisions at farm shop for dinner one night. Would highly recommend staying here!

Fantastic location

We were able to easily walk to the Royal Mile and many other places including Murrayfield Stadium. There are pubs and dining on the same block. Apartment is spacious and well equipped. We appreciated the individual bath products. Owners responsive and helpful. Bedding crips and clean, mattresses firm.

Fringe Stay

There were 4 of us. 1 couple and 2 friends. There were 3 bedrooms so that worked out perfect. There were some minor issues,the owner was wonderful, very responsive. The location was great, not too far away from the events but far enough that we weren’t hearing all the goings on. Would recommend!

A excellent stay in Edinburgh!

This property was perfect for our visit to Edinburgh! The apartment was very comfortable and the location could not have been better. We were able to walk easily to Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, and Arthur's Seat. The host was very responsive to any questions we had before and during our stay. We very much enjoyed our time here!

Posh Lodging near Princess Street

We had a most wonderful stay at William's flat! The kitchen is fantastic, well-stocked, and the perfect place for reminiscing about the day's adventures. The bathrooms are beautifully appointed, and the bedrooms are clean and comfortable. Most importantly, our host, William, was a huge help with numerous questions and was gracious in granting us a late check-out due to travel constraints. Highly recommended all around!

Fantastic Place!

The location is ideal. 10-15 minute walk to everything. The home has a well stocked kitchen, very comfortable beds, great showers and the wifi worked well. I would definitely stay here again. I can’t stress enough how convenient it was to restaurants, sightseeing, and groceries. We really enjoyed it.

Great New Town Stay

We stayed at the flat for 3 nights with our two kids, aged 13 and 10. The kids appreciated getting their own rooms after several nights sharing beds. The flat is in a fabulous location and well laid out. We really appreciated the washer and dryer (with laundry soap) as we were able to refresh our clothes mid trip. We've stayed in other european properties where the dryer was a joke, but this one worked well. We were able to walk the city very easily from this location and had a fantastic stay.

Great spot to stay in Edinburgh

We were very happy with this 3 bedroom flat in Edinburgh. Great layout in a wonderful 200 year old building. Everything was as stated and the host was easy to communicate with. One thing not mentioned, that was a nice bonus, was access to the private gated park across Queen st. It was a pleasant but if serenity in the city.

Clean, convenient, and charming.

If you're looking to stay in the heart of Edinburgh within easy walking distance of some of the best shopping and dining, this is your place! Located at the corner of Queen and Castle Streets in New Town, the apartment offered a no-frills base for our three nights in the city. The owners are very responsive (we needed to reset the hot water/boiler, which was easily done), the beds are comfortable, and the space comfortably accommodated our two families (two couples and three young adults.) Lovely!

Perfect location and space to explore Edinburgh!

Came with my family with two kids- 9 and 11. The location couldn’t be any better. In the heart of new town (nicest area of edinburgh)- walking distance to old town sites (all the big sites are within 20 min walk) The apartment is up one floor- not bad w luggage. It’s a very old building- that’s the charm of Edinburgh. Could use new carpet- but otherwise its in near perfect condition. You can hear a bit of car noise at night, but even my kids (who live in quiet horse country) were fine w ear plugs / sound machine There’s so many good breakfast, lunch and dinner places within a 10 mins walk You need to rent this place. Made our trip awesome
