About this property

New Town apartment with parking

We challenge you to find a more beautiful one bedroom apartment in Edinburgh!

Large first floor*( *2nd floor North America) one bedroom flat overlooking a private garden in exclusive Georgian cul de sac, off Heriot Row.

The spacious first floor apartment comprises a large double bedroom with en suite. The kitchen area has a gas cooker/ fridge/freezer & dishwasher, and includes a utility area with washing machine & dryer.

The large living room, which overlooks the beautiful private Queen Street Gardens, has a separate dining area. All bed linen, towels, pillows and duvets are provided.

The apartment is a few minutes from Waverley Station by taxi. Wemyss Place is just off Queen Street, which runs parallel to George Street. The main shopping area of Princes Street is within easy walking distance. The apartment also has a secure parking bay at the rear of the building.


The apartment is in a very quiet area and yet so close to all the amenities and attractions, within walking distance such as Edinburgh Castle, the Royal Mile, with Holyrood Palace a short drive away. There are many bars, restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques several minutes away in Rose Street.

Edinburgh's famous castle is especially beautiful. Upon entering the city, it commands immediate attention. The eye of the visitor is drawn to the impressive structure rising high above everything else on its sheer granite cliffs. There are incredible panoramic views from the upper stories of the castle, including a clear view of the distant sea. The castle sits high on the huge rock formation that juts out as if in defiance of any who would seek to invade Edinburgh. Castle Rock, as it is known, is inaccessible on three sides, and has a long, descending ridge on the fourth side.

Edinburgh is filled with historic and literary association: John Knox, Mary Queen of Scots, Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (creator of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson), Alexander Graham Bell, Sir Walter Scott, and Bonnie Prince Charlie are all part of its past.

We stayed for ten nights and loved this apt. Such a great area, away from the crowds of the royal mile, but easy to walk to. We hung out mostly in Stockbridge, walked the Leith trail and enjoyed the area of Thistle and Rose St. Having a washer and dryer was great. My only suggestion would be to replace the two couches. The springs are so bad, you almost sink to the floor. We still loved the apt and would stay again.

Amazing!!!

My wife and I stayed at this VRBO in July 2025. This accommodation is absolutely spotless-so very clean. We stayed for four nights and it found it to be was very quiet, we heard no noise. So close to everything Edinburgh has to offer. Easy walking distance to Edinburgh Castle, Hollyrood Palace and of course “The Royal Mile”. Many shops, cafes and pubs nearby. I highly recommend this rental due to its comfort, cleanliness and proximity to everything. If I could make one recommendation to the property owner, it would be to replace the sofas in the living room. The springs are gone. All in all, a fantastic place to stay with in suite laundry and included parking. Thanks so much Paul and Pippa!!!

Superb flat in the New Town

A lovely stay in Edinburgh. Comfortable and posh - a rare combination! We liked the location, the parking, the laundry facilities, the views. Spotlessly clean. Very accommodating hosts who allowed us to shift our booking dates by one day at very little notice. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic Edinburgh Getaway

Our first trip to Scotland... loved the property and gardens across the street. Perfect location - just a brief walk to shops and restaurants but very quiet for being in a city. The flat is charming and clean. We had everything we needed and appreciate the prompt communications. We hope to be back again soon!

Amazing Edinburgh VRBO

This was probably the most amazing apartment we’ve ever rented on VRBO!!! You walk in and are immediately stunned by how beautiful and large all the rooms are. Even has a view of a private park that you are given a key to. Walking distance to everything including the castle!!! Felt like you were in a presidential suite!!!😳😳. It truly is a one of a kind property!!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there!!!!😊😊

Edinburgh stsy

This is an amazing apartment. Thanks he communication with Paul was incredible. He always and quickly responded to my questions, which were very few, as he reached out first to me several times. The apartment is in a great location: very walkable to all the sights in Edinburgh. Just a 10 minute walk to Stockbridge, Princes st, bus station and train station. But the icing on the cake was the apartment itself. So many extras were provided… fans in every room, sound machine in the bedroom, washer AND dryer ( along with detergent) and lovely original art work. The apartment is huge and filled with sunshine and light. Extra pillows and blankets were provided. It was a truly amazing experience.

New Years Eve 2014/15

On our bucket list was to New Year in Edinburgh, at least once, so we decided it would be 2014, after perusing various options, hotels, B&Bs we went on the rentals website. As some of you know its always a bit of a risk, so you are reliant on the descriptions, photos and and reviews such as this at the first instance on any property. I am pleased to say out of many properties this stood out, it was in the right place (very right if you needed to be be near the Princes Street area but not on top of it - literally 10 mins walk) and it was an apartment in a beautiful old building, with access to a green area if you so wished. The apartment itself was lovely as you can see, it was very spacious and equipped to a high standard. All the guide notes were clear - including the parking which for us great as we travelled by car. If i changed anything it would be where the TV is located its a small thing but for me I would like it in the living area. The company we booked through were very helpful in responding to questions and everything went smoothly, so would definitely use them again too. All in all a great new year with great memories.

This beautiful flat is located just a short walk from Princess Street, but it comes with private off road parking, a rare find in central Edinburgh. The kitchen has everything you need for self catering, and the large dining table is ideal for entertaining friends. The king size bed is super comfy. Overall the flat offers the opportunity to experience the grandeur of a New Town Classical Edinburgh home. An unfortunate mix up with the housekeeping meant that the flat had not been cleaned prior to our arrival, but we were offered a discount and this was resolved to our satisfaction, with excellent communication.
Early morning sun.

We spend 4 days in this flat which is in a great location for exploring Edinburgh. 20 minute walk to the castle and everything around the castle and the royal mile. On one day we took the tram up to Leith and then walked back through Stockbridge and Dean Village. The location is on a quiet side street but close enough to shops and restaurants when needed. I would recommend Little Capo Italian restaurant (reservations needed) and Kay's Bar both right around the corner.The interior has an amazing amount of space for two people and provided a necessary respite from being tourists every day. Having separate full size washer and dryer machines was amazing.Bathroom was a good size. There is a decent step up to get in and out of the tub/shower that would benefit from the addition of a grab bar on the wall. The kitchen was well equipped and came with coffee pods, a loaf of bread, some butter and some fresh fruit which we did not expect but was very much appreciated. There are plenty of written instructions in the flat along with all the necessary appliance manuals. Our only two issues were that we couldn't figure out the hallway lights (but we managed!) and both the sofas desperately need new cushions. Neither of these items should be considered dealbreakers.

Our stay in the New Town apartment was wonderful. The hosts were very communicative about all the details and everything in the apartment was top notch. Excellent location with keys to the private park across the street added another delightful touch. We loved Edinburgh and would definitely come back to this VRBO!

Great apartment, in a great location, in a great city. The food goodies that were supplied were much appreciated. The kitchen has everything needed for meal preparation, we took advantage of the weekend farmer markets and were able to have some fun Scottish meals.The apartment is in a quite area across from the private park but within a 10 minute walk of countless restaurants, bars and services.Unfortunately I didn’t study all the check-in info in detail that was sent to me. Pay close attention to the check in PDF as it is the only detailed info on exact building and apartment location.
