Property information

My spacious place is in the heart of Edinburgh in the Georgian New Town. The neighbourhood is famous for some of Edinburgh's best restaurants, cafes and bars (Broughton Street) and the apartment is full of Georgian charm and style. The apartment is a main door entry (so no stairs!) and a short walk to the city centre attractions and Edinburgh's magical old town. The Airport tram stop is at the top of the street and Edinburgh Waverley Train Station is a quick Uber and taxi ride away. The is a very spacious Georgian apartment with 3 large bedrooms (1 king, 1 twin/super king & 1 twin). It has main door access from the street and stretches over the ground and basement levels. The apartment is furnished to the highest quality and will make for a very comfortable short stay. The kitchen is fully equipped and has all the appliances needed to eat in. Guest access Full access to the whole apartment. The host does not stay in the building. Other things to note I use a professional short term let cleaning company and provide high quality linens and towels so you don't need to bring your own.

Neighbourhood information

The flat is set in New Town, a neighborhood known for its array of fine dining restaurants and upscale boutiques that line George Street. Take a stroll through the Queen Street Gardens, then pay a visit to the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. Getting around London Street is very central and most amenities are within walking distance from the apartment. The area is very well served by car hire companies, secure NCPs, local bus services, the infamous tram line on York Place (5mins from the apartment) and Waverley Train Station (15mins away) with all major links across the country. Edinburgh bus station is also very close, just a 10 minute walk away.
