Rapidly becoming my home away from home when I am back in Edinburgh. Been visiting every 6 weeks or so since Aug 2023. Very pleased to report that in a completely Baltic Dec the central heating was splendiferous.

Back up for work and catching up with friends. Ideally located gentle stroll into the city centre. Quiet residential area with a couple of bars within 20 minute stumbling distance. Huge supermarket just round the corner. Flat is well provisioned with kitchen utensils if you want to cook instead of eat out. I'm normally back in Edinburgh every 6 weeks for about 5 days and try and organise the dates so I can stay here.

Edinburgh Fringe stay
Nice apartment allowing for a comfortable quiet stay. Well located for buses, and a brisk 15 minute walk to the Royal Mile. Very well-equipped kitchen. Acceptable fee, given the inflated Edinburgh fees at festival time. Would definitely recommend.

The perfect place to stay.. Close to the centre of town, local shops walkable. Nice neighbourhood. The flat/apartment is well furnished and in a quiet location. I've, since visiting for the first time last August 2023, been back almost every month. Long may it continue

A wonderful place to stay in Edinburgh
The location is great, the apartment is spacious and it has all the amenities you’ll need. Communication with the host was spectacular! A quiet neighborhood and a 15 minute walk to the Royal Mile. Be sure to stop in at the Artisan Bar just a few steps away.

Dog friendly apartment
Really enjoyed this apartment. Easy to get a bus from Abbeyhill. Lots of places to eat and get takeaways. A stones throw from the meadowbank shopping centre. Patio area which was great for the dog, but the only thing i would say about the patio is the gate is easy for a small /medium dog to get out. It would be easily rectified with some netting fixed over it. The lighting in the flat was a bit dark and the water pressure is not great but that is the same in many Edinburgh flats that i have stayed in. I would go there again. So all in all nplaceplacstay.

Wonderful well located flat in Edinburgh!
This was a wonderful flat for me and my friend to stay in. The decor is beautiful & the flat is well appointed with everything you could need. The host was very communicative and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. There is a bus stop right nearby which made getting around very easy. It was also well located to walking to many places we wanted to visit. The place wasn’t cozy, the linens were very nice, particularly enjoyed the fluffy towels. The bathroom was great for me and my friend as well, I like to shower, she prefers baths and we both had our needs well met. I would definitely stay there again!

Decent and clean flat to spend your nights and mornings
The flat itself is clean and small but it has everything you could need! It is a bit of a walk to the old town (20-30 mins downhill then uphill) but we didn't mind that as much as we are used to walking. The street is quiet and the building feels safe. The bus stop right outside the flat is also very convenient!

Edinburgh in August/September.
Property is fantastic spotless with new fixtures and fittings and fully equipped kitchen so I only eat out when I wanted to. Very quiet residential area about 20 minutes walk from centre of town. Very large supermarket about 5 minutes walk away which covers all your needs. I will be definitely be rebooking this property, if available, rather than use hotels. Completely perfect stay many thanks.

Just as described
My son and I stayed here and loved it! It had everything we needed- including drying rack for clothes and blow dryer. The only negative, and it’s not the owner’s fault, is the noise. Every time someone closes the door to the outside of the building, you can hear and feel it. And there was a particularly vocal seagull outside my window every morning at 6am. But that’s just part of the city charm. I’d stay here again.

Quiet, older area within walking distance to old and new town
This was a very nice location. Both the old town and the new town were within walking distance. If you are unable to or do not like walking, there is a bus stop immediately in front of the property. The kitchen is well stocked if you wish to make meals and there is a larger grocer just around the corner. If you are eating out, the Red Kite Cafe was just across the street and exquisite! Only two concerns with the property. One, the shower did not drain properly so showers were short and did not want to wash hair. Second, the locks were a bit glitchy. The one day we were unable to catch to second lock. All in all, however, we’d rent there again. If you do rent here, check out the quaint courtyard in the back!

Lovely place, great communication, Great base to explore a magnificent city. steps leading to apartment unlit and a bit intimidating. We are a bit on the mature side though. Many Thanks VRBO.

prima accommodatie, schoon en goed verzorgd, op loopafstand van het centrum. wel wat donker omdat het lager is dan straat niveau. Met de auto niet te doen door slechte parkeergelegenheid en prive parkeerplaatsen. bekeuring gekregen maar prima opgelost door reisburo. sleutel procedure wat lastig, entree wat onverzorgd.

Great experience!
The property has everything you need: washing machine, iron, even a blow dryer. The kitchen is equipped pretty well, so that we could prepare food on our own as well. Super clean and super cozy. The location was also very convenient: only one minute to get to the next bus stop and grocery stores are basically around the corner. The instructions for the check-in as well as fir the check-out were so detailed that we had no problems whatsoever. All in all, we were very happy with our choice to stay here!

Lovely stay
We were quite happy with the apartment and where it’s located - close enough to central Edinburgh, yet quietly residential. Moreover, it’s well connected by public transport. One little improvement the flat could do with: A few hooks for hanging up stuff (coats etc and towels in the bathroom).
