Over looking park land - "Leith-Links", the original home of golf!

Wellington Place is a truly unique property. The town house was originally designed for a wealthy merchant because of its proximity to the old trading centre of Leith docks and retains a wealth of original features: extravagant plasterwork , marble fireplaces, etched glass windows and original shutters on all windows.

A stunning bow-ended master bedroom which would most likely have been the original dining-room, as suggested by the marble fireplace and etched glass windows is a relaxing place to spend time after a day sightseeing in the historical city. Stunning new bathroom just fitted with walk-in shower, new appliances and underfloor heating!

These original features have been combined with the open-plan style and contemporary features of 21st-century living to provide a calm and relaxing environment. The modern open plan kitchen and dining area have all the appliances one would expect from a state of the art kitchen while retaining the original grand period features of the room. The lounge also has a remotely controlled gas fire, very authentic, within an impressive Georgian fireplace for cosy nights in. All windows have working shutters.

The property comes with state of the art media entertainment and communications including; 40" Sony flat screen - full HD, Blue Ray DVD, fast broad band via wifi. This place is seriously cool!

On-street metered parking is available and we can also provide visitor permits with sufficient notice - a major asset in any city. The nearest bus and tram stop is just 5 mins. round the corner on Constitución street departing every 5/10 minutes directly to Princes Street, where the journey time is approx 10 mins - so extremely close to the city centre without the same extent of noise and traffic. So a real oasis in Edinburgh!

Surrounded by excellent local amenities, supermarkets ( nearest 2 mins from building), bars & restaurants and award winning Terrance Conran designed Mall, home to The Royal Yacht Britannia on quay side, multi-plex cinema, excellent shopping just 5 mins away by car or cab.

Great flat in a great location
My husband and I stayed with friends and our oldest son. The flat was beautiful, maintaining most of the original details, yet modern, comfortable and well equipped. The tram stop was close by, making it easy to get around (even to the airport) Tesco right down the street made shopping easy, and the neighborhood was calm and quiet, yet close to services and restaurants. Highly recommend and will keep this at the top of the list for our next visit to Edinburgh.

Stayed there for 4 nights. Location was perfect. Walking distance to a grocery store, shops and restaurants. Plus a very short walk to the Edinburgh tram that we used everyday. House was beautiful and met our needs during our stay. Enjoyed the heated floors in the bathroom and the beds were very comfortable. Definitely would stay there again and would recommend this place to anyone visiting Edinburgh.

Ideal City Break
Well appointed accommodation, warm and comfortable with a slightly lived in feel that makes you feel at home. Walk in to centre or numerous trams and buses. Leith itself has pubs, cafes and restaurants and many interesting walks from the front door. Highly recommended.

Great place for families
This was a great place for our family. Grocery store was a block away; great park with play structures across from the apartment; quick transportation to sites, just around the corner. Our bed was extremely comfortable and felt like heaven after a long trip. The kitchen had everything one needs (although it could use a few more dinner plates to reduce frequency of dishwasher cycles). The kids had their own room, which was just what they needed. Host was very responsive. We would rent again for a future stay.

Time in Edinburg
The apartment provided all that we needed. The extra bedroom was a little small but the primary room was very spacious. Although away from the city it was easy to access via bus. Enjoyed our visit very much.

Girls' weekend
My friend and I wanted a weekend away but not city centre. Leith is a lovely place. Recommend Fishers restaurant. The flat was in a great location for shopping and a short walk to bars, restaurants and harbour. Would stay again. Extraordinarily comfy bed and cosy duvets and pillows. Well equipped. Would have liked some milk, tea and coffee available for arrival but otherwise very pleased with standard of accommodation. Thank you Morris.

Lovely Property
Overall, a lovely apartment which is very spacious. The rooms were great! You will need to get a bus to the city centre (if you are visiting it) but it's very easy to do as the bus pick up it just round the corner, so very easy. Overall, very pleased.

The apartment was very central and had everything you could need for a short or long stay.
This apartment was ideal for our needs and had everything on tap. Also for us it had plenty of parking nearby for free which was great. We had easy access to nice restaurants on the shore within easy walking distance and were also close to Princes Street by bus.
