“Perfect setting, luxury accommodation - will definitely return! Just a shame Scotland didn't win...”
1
person found this review helpful
This is the 5th property I have rented in Edinburgh in the last few years - all were excellent choices but this is definitely the best.
Everything was of such a high standard - the furniture, fully equipped kitchen, beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms, comfortable beds, a lovely sitting room. When we arrived I was amazed by the fabulous hamper - ideal when we arrived on quite a late train.
Helen was so helpful during the booking process, key collection etc and so flexible.
And all this less than a minute's walk to George Street, a few to Princes Street, 15 minutes to the castle and Grassmarket, and only 30 seconds to Rose Street. We do walk quite quickly! An ideal setting to see the sites of this beautiful city.

1 review “The little touches make a big difference”
We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful flat - our party ranged in age from 18mths - 65yrs with everything in between, and we were all more than comfortable. Little touches like the cot already being made up, complete with teddy bear, really made the difference between arriving at a rental property and being welcomed into a 'home from home' for our stay. The Welcome Basket is also lovely and saves arriving and being faced with the prospect of immediately having to go shopping. The property is ideally positioned for shopping, touring, visiting local sights and going out in the evening; secure off-street parking is also a big benefit. Have already recommended the flat to several sets of friends and would definitely re-book were we ever to revisit Edinburgh.

It's on the top floor - but that's 'flat' life and more than compensated for by the views!
