This was my home for 13 years and it is in a great part of the city. The bay window in the lounge is a great place to just sit and watch the world go by. It's in a good local neighbourhood with a great community vibe and is well located for the Old Town and city centre with only 10 minutes walk to the Palace, the Parliament and the start of the Royal Mile. The apartment has two double bedrooms: the Master bedroom has zip and link beds which can be set up as either a twin (2 separate beds) or super ling size; the second bedroom is set up as a double. Both bedrooms are double glazed. The bright bay windowed lounge has TV/DVD, stereo, dining table for 6 and a double sofa bed for extra guests. The separate kitchen is well equipped with a range of modern wall mounted units, integrated hob and oven, fridge freezer, washing machine, microwave, toaster etc and all utensils - everything you need for a fully self catered stay. The bathroom has a fresh white three piece suite including both bath and shower. The apartment has gas central heating, free high speed Wi-fi internet access and Virgin Media Cable TV. There is free on street parking immediately outside the apartment.

I am Edinburgh born and bred but now live in Perthshire just at the edge if the Highlands. I make a living tour guiding round Scotland, playing music and am a qualified Rebirther. I have been letting this apartment since 2013 and aim to make it a clean and comfortable space you can relax in in-between excursions into the city so I hope you enjoy your stay. Please just message me if you have any questions at all about the property. I have been involved in tour guiding for the last 18 years in Scotland so if you have any questions about places to go just ask. My current passion is swimming in the lochs and rivers of Scotland but I still haven't seen Nessie...

The apartment is located in the popular Easter Road area of Edinburgh, which lies close to the Old Town and to the east of the City Centre. The property is well positioned to take advantage of a superb range of local shops, cafes and delicatessens and a cosmopolitan selection of bars, cinemas, theatres and restaurants within the nearby Leith Walk area. Edinburgh's historic Royal Mile leading from the Palace to the Castle is easily accessed, as is the Scottish Parliament and the beautiful open spaces of Holyrood Park. Also within walking distance is the stunning viewpoint of Calton Hill where you can get views across the city and up to the Highlands in the north. For the more adventurous there is Arthurs Seat - Edinburgh’s highest hill just a short hike from the apartment. Within 10 minutes walk are the Vue multi screen cinema and Omni Centre, Playhouse Theatre and the various bars and restaurants of Leith Walk. Good shopping is available in the city centre including Harvey Nichols, luxury shopping in Multrees Walk and the St.James Centre. There is an excellent bus service from near the apartment to all parts of the city including shore area with the Royal Yacht Britannia.
