About this property
Beautiful Apartment in Edinburgh City Centre - License no. EH-69342-F
Designed by the architect William Playfair in the middle of the 19th century, Carlton Terrace, along with the adjacent Regent and Royal Terraces, forms part of Edinburgh's prestigious New Town district.
This comfortable one bedroom apartment within Carlton House has recently been refurbished and furnished. Situated on Carlton Terrace, one of Edinburgh's most elegant cobbled streets, this second (USA third) floor apartment is in a prime location for the city centre attractions as well as its famous viewpoints such as Calton Hill & Arthur's Seat. The Royal Mile and Princes Street are both only a 10 minute walk away.
The apartment's position at the rear of the building ensures privacy, tranquillity and a south facing aspect.
Please note, this is a non smoking apartment.
Please also note that there are 2 flights of stairs to reach the apartment and there is no lift so it may not be suitable if you are elderly or have breathing difficulties.
Local Vicinity: As you walk out of the front door of Carlton House and face London Road Gardens, it is difficult to believe you are only a 5 minute walk from the vibrant restaurant and entertainment district of the East End of Edinburgh. The Playhouse Theatre which stages the latest musicals and shows is a 5 min. walk away and Harvey Nichols and John Lewis department stores are also within 5-10 mins. walk. Add another 5 mins. walk and you'll reach the shopping district of Princes Street and George Street.
Parking: Street parking is available on Carlton Terrace on a metered basis from 08:30-17:30 Mon-Fri but with max. stay 4 hours at any one time. Outside of these times, parking is free. You are virtually guaranteed to find a place right outside the property at any time.

About the host
Hosted by Mark Howseman

I am a doctor who has lived in Edinburgh since 1999 and I love to travel and meet like-minded individuals. I have been hosting guests in holdiay accommodation for over 20 years and hope to do so for another 20 years!
Why they chose this property
I bought this apartment in 2008 as a holiday flat and loved the building and the location so much that I was lucky enough to buy the adjacent apartment in 2012 and I have lived here eversince.
What makes this property unique
The unique benefit of this apartment is the juxtaposition of the proximity to the city centre whilst maintaining a rural feel due to the proximity to Holyrood Park.
