Needed a home base and this was perfect. Close to the Royal Mile and restaurants. Airport was less than 30 min away.

I unexpectedly needed an extra week in Edinburgh, and this homey, but spacious and (sunny!) flat exactly fit the bill. Great kitchen, a real dining table, pleasant sitting room. Very convenient to Edinburgh's excellent bus system. Enjoyed Holyrood Park every day, and tea at the Palace Cafe (5-7 min. walk to bottom of Royal Mile). Scottish Parliament and Dynamic Earth maybe 10 min. Short on neighborhood eateries, but nice lunches during sightseeing made for simple suppers "in." For golfers, North Berwick, home of the Scottish Open is 45 minute drive, with many other courses along the south side of the Firth (in case your family has split interests, like mine). Anne is an attentive and courteous host.

This flat was the perfect size for our family and a great location. The views to the park and Arthur’s seat are stunning. Would stay here again.
