About the location

This apartment is at the east end of the city centre and is great if you are catching a show at the Playhouse Theatre and you can also walk to the eastern end of the Royal Mile in 5 or 6 minutes where you will find Holyrood Palace, Scottish parliament, Dynamic Earth and Holyrood park. Another walk you can do is up Regent Road where many of the embassies are towards calton Hill and Princes Street where you will get a great view point just opposite the old High School. There is a Sainsburys supermarket close by at Meadowbank retail park and plenty of local shops on London Road and Easter Road. If you are going to Princes Street you can either walk or take a bus which will take about 4 minutes.

This apartment is also ideally located for marathon weekend and other events in Holyrood park and if you like keeping fit you will find a circuit or 2 around Arthurs Seat and Salisbury Crags will provide you with a very picturesque running track. If you are travelling with young children you can walk to St Margarets Loch in the park and feed the ducks and if you are a little more energetic you can climb to the top of Arthurs Seat for great views of the city (it is an easy climb suitable for everyone). The old observatory on Calton Hill is also a great viewpoint where you will be able to look straight down Princes Street and if you are really observant you can look for the mariners clock above the tower where a ball drops at 1 o'clock in unison with the one o clock gun so that sailors in Leith could check their times. All in all a great location for exploring the city. The owner offers a "meet and greet" service whereby you will be met at the property to provide keys and be shown the layout etc. Check is usually 4pm and check out is by 10am, however alternative arrangements can be made prior to arrival.

This apartment is well supplied for local amenities such as supermarkets (Sainsbury's Co-op and Iceland all within easy walking distance), many good takeaway's and local restaurants/pubs/cafes, the Omni cinema/restaurant complex, plus of course all the city centre attractions.

The owners leave a home-made guide to local facilities and activities in the apartment for your information. The apartment is located at the east end of the city centre, just below Regent Terrace and very close to the Playhouse Theatre. Princes Street is a 10minute walk, the Royal Mile, Holyrood Palace and the Parliament just 5minutes walk.

This property is well-situated to enjoy plenty of green spaces being close to Holyrood Park and Calton Hill.
It also has great public transport links. Parking is free in the streets South and East of the terrace.

"We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment - it is very homely and comfortable. I would definately recommend it to anyone. The quirky features and traditional nature of this flat provide a lovely Edinburgh experience for guests. The location is also really convenient"

"This apartment is really beautiful. We really enjoyed staying a few days in Edinburgh thanks to the flat that is really confortable. Nice furniture, clean and quiet flat : we felt like at home !
Tom and Carmen, the owners of the flat are really nice. A bottle of wine welcomed us when we arrived !"

"This is an absolutely adorable apartment. It is beautifully decorated and was admired by everyone who stayed. It felt like a home from home and as it was pretty wet weather that weekend, it was an easy choice to come back to the apartment! Each room was lovely, in fact the only annoying thing about the apartment is deciding which room to stay in! The beds were comfy for everyone and our party had a mix of ages and a pregnant lady. We had trouble getting cds to work in the cd player but this was not a problem as we just made our own music! The location is fantastic and we would definitely recommend."

"Just wanted to say a big thank you - every one of the ladies that stayed at your flat was very impressed with it and really enjoyed staying. They were extremely impressed."

"A fantastic apartment, well situated for all the city centre amenities with a nice homely feel. Comfortable beds and well decorated throughout. No major issues with noise from the external road experienced over our weekend stay. Would definitely recommend."
