About this property

Central, Modern Apartment close to the Royal Mile with wonderful views

How we’re keeping you safe.

We want you to feel relaxed in our apartment. Self catering may be the safest way to take your holidays during the Covid-19 crisis because you have the entire place to yourselves. While none of us can know the exact risk, here are the steps we’re taking to protect you from infection:

1. We already operate a keybox system which means that you won’t need to collect the keys from our concierge
2, We have risk assessed our apartment to ensure we’re ahead of hygiene and infection control protocol
3. Our cleaning team have designed a check sheet specifically for this apartment so that the highest standards can be easily met

How you can help.

1. For your safety, we would recommend removing shoes and washing your hands on entry throughout your stay.
2. To protect us all, we ask that you report any Covid-19 symptoms to our concierge team straightaway.



Pleasance apartment is fully equipped for up to four adults plus one baby.

There's one double bedroom with zip/link beds (can be king size or twin), a double sofa bed (138cm x 185cm) in the living room and cot and highchair.

There are two roomy fitted wardrobes and a hall cupboard for suitcase storage.

Gas, electricity, towels and linen are all included in the price. Washing up liquid, dishtowels, loo rolls and washing machine tablets will also be provided.

The apartment is one of 9 apartments in a quiet, modern, well lit tenement.

I live too far away to be on hand during your stay. To make sure you enjoy your time I use a Professional Concierge agency. They'll be on hand for you throughout your visit.

Check in will be arranged in advance so you have no fear of delayed flights or late arrivals and can come and go as you please.

I have been letting this holiday apartment for 8 years and feel confident you will enjoy the perfect holiday accommodation.

There is a welcome folder available on arrival with help and guidance on all aspects of the apartment usage.

    Overall this was a very good choice. Easy to get to both the Old Town areas and Arthur's Seat, with a nice view and a good layout of the apartment. Strong washer/dryer was a plus. In the university neighborhood, so there was some noise that you might not expect but shopping was easy.

    This apartment was very nice and just as described. It was within walking distance of all the sights of Edinburgh but just far enough away to be in a quieter area. With the unusually warm weather having a fan available would have been great but cetainly not a negative. We really enjoyed our stay...this is a great place!

    Charming and Convenient: A Perfect Edinburgh Stay

    I recently stayed in this cozy apartment in Edinburgh and had a wonderful experience. The location is fantastic—conveniently close to key attractions, restaurants, and public transport, making it easy to explore the city. The apartment itself is charming and well-maintained, with all the comforts one could need for a relaxing stay. From the comfortable bed to the well-equipped kitchen, every detail was thoughtfully arranged. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient base while visiting Edinburgh.

    Great location, but cold

    We enjoyed our stay. The apartment is clean and the location is very convenient. Our only complaint was how long it took to warm up (24+ hrs). We had stay in one room with the space heater until it reached a comfortable temperature, around day 3.

    Wonderful stay

    This was a fantastic flat. We stayed three nights and fell in love with the city and wished we had more time in the flat. It was exactly as described/pictured and we were very impressed. The views were amazing, the bed comfortable, and the hostess was a great communicator and available. We plan on coming back to Scotland to see more of the beautiful country and will definitely book again.

    Handy flat for sightseeing

    Host was accommodating and flat was walking distance to Royal Mile and had great views of Arthur’s Seat. Only issue is it’s a third floor flat without an elevator/lift so be prepared to carry luggage. If you are sleeping in the living room on the pullout, there is street noise. Bedroom is quiet

    It's a lover's getaway.
    It's the farewell of your child to university or the celebration of their graduation.
    It's the weight of a family's expectation or your child's good nights' sleep.
    It's the haven between important job interviews or a home from home when work takes you from loved ones.
    It's a chance to reminisce, return, retread old paths or discover new interests and loves.
    It's a party with friends in a truly international capital city.

    It's an investment in your hope, money and time. We understand that it's important to you. It's important to us, too. Wherever you end up, have a great stay in Edinburgh, our favourite city.
