Our central, stylish and cosy apartment is the perfect base for your stay in Edinburgh. Conveniently situated in the West End/Fountainbridge, it’s very central, close to EICC, 10 mins walk from Edinburgh Castle, the Old Town and the city centre, you can even see the Festival fireworks from our apartment! Beautifully renovated, the apartment offers a stylish space with all the home comforts you could want, including cableTV and WiFi. Ideally suited for couples, families, groups and individuals.
I am an easy going host and like to ensure my guests have everything they need to make a comfortable home from home during their stay. I love travelling and Edinburgh! It's a wonderful city with so much to see and do. If you need any help planning your trip or suggestions of things to do during your stay I'm happy to help.
Our apartment is very central making Edinburgh's key attractions within easy walking distance. It is situated in a quiet street just round the corner from the road that leads down into the Grassmarket, in the Old Town, which is at the foot of the Castle. The area is steeped in history and there are some lovely bars, cafes, restaurants and boutiques you can visit on your way down, including some great family friendly places with play areas and toys for little ones. Our neighbourhood's claim to fame which we are proud of is Scotland's very own Sean Connery was born and brought up here! You can walk the very streets he did as a young chap! If it’s a warm sunny day a walk along to the Meadows is highly recommended where you can enjoy the buzz of activity, street music and set yourself up with a picnic or bbq. For families there are two great play parks at the Meadows and there is a small one just round the corner. Just a few minutes walk away is the leisure complex Fountain Park, which has a huge indoor trampoline park, cinema, bowling and gym.
