Guest access
Our flat is located in a Georgian house at the eastern end of the historic New Town, that was built in the 1820's by W. H. Playfair. New Town forms part of the UNESCO world heritage site. In a Grade A listed building with classic high ceilings our apartment was the original kitchens to the house. Now a lower ground floor flat, it has been architecturally restored to an exciting standard, highlighting traditional period features while benefiting from modern luxuries.

As my family home for over 45 years, my wife and I spent nearly a year lovingly restoring and upgrading it…bringing together the old and the new. Throughout the kitchen, hallways and bathrooms we installed under floor heating beneath the original flagstones… a real mission! You will have all the comforts of home... the apartment is warm and cozy at any time of year.

And bring your own music - there is a nice bluetooth speaker to connect with.

Guests will have access to the entire flat.
Other things to note
We are ON the Edinburgh marathon start line!

There is a flight of outside stairs to the flat.

Excellent flat but the shower didn't work properly
The flat is very well finished and everything was clean. It's also very convenient for walking to most attractions in Edinburgh. The only downside was the shower which was dangerously hot and did not reduce in temperature whatever setting was used, it seemingly had no cold water supply. The ALTIDO contact said all the right things and promised to send someone but despite two calls we never heard anything further. It's a shame the shower wasn't working properly as otherwise it is an excellent property.
