Excellent central location

We had a really lovely stay in the spacious ground floor unit. It was so close to everything and was also quite tucked away down a close.

Gorgeous Apartment - Stunning location

Perfect location right on the Royal Mile in the heart of Edinburgh. The view out the window was incredible! Our apartment was so comfortable and clean, and Derek was very easy to communicate with. The little hamper upon arrival made us feel so welcome too. Loved it!

Historic charmer

The apartment was as we expected it to be. Amazing location in the middle of the Old Town but still kept fairly quiet by double glazing. The stairs were challenging to get suitcases up and down but we did it. The apartment was warm, cosy and quite well equipped. Would stay there again.
