We booked Scott’s lovely apartment for an extended family getaway. There were seven of us in total and we travelled to Edinburgh for the Christmas markets from Ireland. We were looking for a place to chill out in the evenings and a place that felt communal as it was a getaway with cousins and aunties and we wanted a space we could share and catch up with one another! Scott’s place was the perfect option as it has a large living room area with three sofas and a TV. There is a small kitchen area which has a window looking out into the living room - a lovely touch! The kitchen was supplied with everything we needed for a cuppa on arrival and there was also bread and tea cakes left by the host. There are two rooms - one big room with two double beds and a smaller room with one double bed. The sofas in the living also fold out into pull-out-beds and were really comfy. It’s a perfect place for a larger group with plenty of space for everyone! Bathroom was also stocked with lots of products, with shampoo and body wash provided for. The area is perfect for exploring Edinburgh on foot, particularly if you’re sticking to the new town for a lot of your activities/ eating out. Just to note - the apartment is located on a cobbled street behind some pubs/restaurants so bins are being filled with glass bottles early in the morning. In case this is something that would bother a light sleeper but we were up and out early most mornings so it didn’t bother us! Would 100% stay here again and our group are already looking forward to returning!

This home is absolutely stunning, a perfect balance of luxury and comfort. Paula was lovely to communicate with and any instructions were clear and easy to follow. The master bedroom is an absolute delight with the comfiest bed and lovely en suite with both bath & shower. Everyone slept well and felt completely relaxed in this beautiful home. Proximity into the city was great, a short ride on the bus which stops a couple of minutes walk from the house and runs every 12 minutes! Supermarkets within 5 mins and the restaurant literally on thr doorstep was really good. Would absolutely love to stay here again

Because I read these reviews before traveling, I booked an extra night at this remarkable property. They sent me this review to fill out for my second booking and I will use it to continue to sing the praises of this unique stay. If you want to feel like royalty, stay here your last nights before flying out of EDI Airport. If you always look up when you hear an airplane engine, this is a little spot of heaven. The property is equipped with a central sound system for those who aren't thrilled with the sound of planes, so no worries about noise pollution intruding upon the peace and tranquility. If you have the soul of a daydreamer .... book this property and you will never regret your choice! I didn't get to light fires in the two fireplaces so a return trip is due to experience that bit of magic! Many thanks to the incredible hosts for making this property available to the hopeless romantics and perpetual daydreamers of the world....

We loved the whole house, all the facilities were clean and in good condition. We specifically loved the thermostat and the bathtub which was a big plus after a big trip. The manager was super friendly and helpful and even with our late arrival and was so kind to let us extend the check out.
