Hogmanay Highlight

My family of 4, with two teen boys aged 13 & 15, stayed at this wonderful apartment for 4 nights to celebrate the new year (aka Hogmanay) in Edinburgh. The apartment was warm and cozy and had everything needed to make for a great stay. The kitchen was fully stocked with cooking equipment and basic spices so you can easily whip up a meal. We loved the location - close to restaurants, market and an easy walk to town. Alastair and Morag were great hosts and easy to communicate with from booking to check out. Would definitely recommend staying here while visiting Edinburgh! P.S. If you like Scotch, Cafe Royal had a great selection with cheap (by NY standards) price per pour. My husband created his own tasting.

Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023
