About this property

Edinburgh Art Deco city centre apartment. Beautifully presented home-from-home

Learmonth Court is an elegant art deco mansion, set back in a quiet private road within landscaped gardens. It has the security of a resident caretaker and has lifts to the apartment, which enjoys amazing views from its 4th floor location. Perfectly situated, it is a 15 minute walk to the start of the attractions at the West End of Princes Street, a 5 minute walk to the local Waitrose supermarket and a 2 minute walk to the local restaurant and bar. It is regarded as a home from home by our guests who have rated it 5 stars and have come back year after year, loving the comfy beds, the sofas dressed with plump cushions and throws, and the well equipped kitchen. Our guests tell us how they love sitting at the bay window after a hard day's sightseeing, enjoying the view over the roof tops to the stunning Fettes college and beyond to the Kingdom of Fife. Then, enjoying a peaceful night sleep in one of the 2 double bedrooms (one of which can be made up as a twin) with its fresh white bed linen. We have now completely renovated the bathroom and kitchen, which features a twin oven and ceramic hob, along with integrated fridge, freezer, washer/dryer, and dishwasher. Overall, the apartment is furnished to a high standard with wireless broadband just another feature in the all inclusive price shown. All-in-all, you will find the apartment very comfortable - a real home from home.
We welcome you and we are certain you will enjoy your stay!

Please note that, from 24 July 2026, the rental rates quoted include a 5% Edinburgh Visitor Levy imposed by edinburgh City Council.

Excellent Location and Amenities

This is an excellent property - well located, a great size and with good amenities. It was very much as “advertised”. A key feature was that it was a quiet and restful place to stay after exploring Edinburgh and all it has to offer.

Edinburgh Perfection!

It's been 30 year since my last trip to Edinburgh and it was everything I hoped it would be, for me and my niece, who had never been. The flat was just as advertised, beautifully appointed and in a quiet neighborhood, but close to everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. If you're looking for a fantastic place to stay you cannot go wrong with this Art Deco flat!

Wonderful 4th floor flat in Edinburgh

Euan and Avril seem to have thought of everything to make their roomy and comfortable 4th-floor flat the perfect "home away from home." We also enjoyed being able to walk to a nice grocery store, bakery, and restaurants, and when a bus is needed, it's less than 5-minutes walk to the bus stop. We highly recommend staying at Comely Bank.

What wonderful accommodations and great hosts. Communication was always prompt and clear. The space was beautifully furnished, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. We walked all over the city from here and loved being in a more quiet section of the city after our tourist activities.

We are both now retired. Euan was a University Senior Lecturer in Exercise Physiology, and Avril was a Financial Adviser.

What makes this property unique

The view looking north over Edinburgh onto Fettes College, and then on further to the hills of Fife, are wonderful. In addition to that, the city centre is so accessible, either by foot (15 minutes) or by using one of the very frequent buses that stop just 3 minutes away from the apartment.
