We had a great stay here. The property was as advertised and is a fantastic location. It had many spaces to visit with one another, a great welcome basket and plenty of room. Christine had good communication throughout our stay.
This was a very gorgeous spot that was located in a great area to access many of the tourist spots. The house was fantastic with living rooms on the 1st and second floor, so there were multiple
Places to sit down and relax if needed. The rooms were also very spacious.
Fantastic accommodation in central location. Hosts very helpful/responsive to any questions. Thoughtful welcome pack included. I would definitely book again.
This is one of the nicest VRBO properties I have ever stayed at. Spotlessly clean, well supplied with everything and in a great location for seeing the sites of Edinburgh. On a quiet street between the Oxford and Cambridge bars! Perfect!
We are mixed age friends group and loved staying in this house . It is in a fantastic location with short walk to all attractions. The house is spotless with lovely interior and they have thought of everything you might need to enjoy your stay. We will be back and will recommended.
Property was in a wonderful, central location. Public transportation was readily available. The apartment was modern and very well maintained. Highly recommended rental! (Prepare for the loud seagulls!)
The property is well located for all activities in Edinburgh. We were greeted with a welcome hamper that was very thoughtful to our needs of a cup of tea and glass of wine and chocolate. The house is well appointed and immaculate. We had a great stay . Thank you
The property is just as described. Very clean and beautiful! The location can’t be beat as it is a short walk to the city with many restaurants, shops, and the stunning Edinburgh Castle.
We only stayed two nights, but wish it had been longer as we loved the city and the accommodation.
The property manager, Christine, is quick to answer any questions and the hamper of goodies was a delight!
What can we say other than our entire family holiday stay was nothing short of amazing. The townhouse was so inviting, very spacious for all, comfort all around. Upon arrival, we found a delightful basket of treats which was a welcomed sight after a long flight. The home was clean and tidy, just as described. We can’t wait to come back again on our next family holiday and we can’t recommend this property enough!!! Excellent!!!
Great place, Great location
Very nice welcome basket with goodies, Thank you!
We all loved the property! (be prepared for a lot of stairs)
Was able to walk EVERYWHERE.
2 different pubs right across the street
Nice walk to Edinburgh castle
Tons of shops/restaurants/bars/attractions
Could of used a few more towels…
Stayed for 3 nights. 6 adults comfortable home close to walking distance to castle and easy access to Hop on hop off transportation. Great local pub next door. Accommodation had everything we needed to prepare breakfast each morning. Loaded hamper of goodies greater us with basics such as coffee and tea and nice sweet treats. Great welcome to Scotland.
Stylish townhome in New Town, refurbished to a high standard, with every comfort and amenity. Super clean. Easy check in. Property manager was accommodating and responsive. Loved it!
Perfect stay for our son’s wedding in central Edinburgh. Easy to find. Garage for the car nearby-very handy. Enough room for us to have our separate space but come together in the communal areas. Tasteful decoration. Well equipped kitchen. Spotless & comfortable.
Large property with plenty of beds. Very clean and modern, with all amenities needed, including washer and dryer. Really appreciated the goodie basket when we arrived. Location is perfect in Newtown, walkable to everywhere in Edinburgh. Quiet street although the seagulls are bonkers at 3-5 AM when they see the sun rise. Convenient to both Cambridge Bar and Oxford Bar.
We would totally stay here again and we adore Edinburgh.
We were on holiday as a family of seven adults. We loved how central the property was to everything, nothing was more than a 15-20 minute walk. The house itself is beautifully decorated and furnished and we loved the layout with the kitchen on the first floor. It was the hub of the place! Everything we needed was supplied and we appreciated the goodies left for us too! We found the street to be very quiet and right off George Street too. Would definitely come back again.
Spotless apartment in a quiet neighborhood a short walk from Edinburgh city center. Attentive host available at a moment’s notice if needed. Spacious bedrooms with super comfortable beds and large bathrooms. Plenty of room to spread out or gather together in living areas or large kitchen/dining. Fridge stocked with starter items as well as a basket of coffee, teas & goodies. Many restaurants and shopping options nearby.
This property suited us very well for what we wanted. Good sized bedrooms and plenty living accommodation in a central venue. It was easy walking to the various events we had planned. Beds were comfy, nice fluffy towels and good seating areas. The welcome hamper was very nice. Communication with the manager was also good. There was some street noise to be aware of though.
Great location, great facilities however disappointed regards no bathroom on middle bedroom floor and exceptionally small bedroom, felt bathroom could have gone in wasted space on the landing or upstairs sitting room made into twin and small bedroom becomes bathroom
The location is a 15 minute walk from Waverly bridge drop off for airport bus and 25 minutes to the castle. Neighborhood was safe with almost zero nighttime noise. Multiple levels so if you have someone with mobility issues you probably should move on. Liked having 2 master suites, lots of room to spread out over the 3 levels. Communication with host was great and welcome basket a nice touch. Washer and Dryer are two separate units..... so appreciated and much more efficient than the combo units we experienced elsewhere. Loads of restaurants within 5 minutes. Would stay here again!
This wonderful townhouse was located in a perfect city center location. It is in walking distance to just about everything your site seeing heart desires, also a ton restaurants and shopping. The townhouse is 3 levels. Bottom level has a living room, bedroom and separate bathroom. The 2nd level has a 2nd living room, a small single sized bedroom, the kitchen and dining area. The 3rd level has 2 large en-suite bedrooms. The street the home sits on is quaint and historical looking with the cobblestones. The home itself is restored beautifully. The only minor suggestion I have is to possible replace the carpet in the carpeted areas such as the 1st level bedroom with something softer. The carpet now has a rough texture and not comfortable on bare feet. Again it is a very minor suggestion. This home is a great place for family, friends, or just about anyone.
Fantastic location with loads of amenities in the house including phone chargers and hairdryers in every room. Easy to access the property, great communication and a lovely welcome basket on arrival. Would love to stay again.
We felt very welcomed and the host went above and beyond to make sure our needs were met. We appreciated an early check in. The house had everything we needed and was a comfortable stay.
Just fabulous! It was like a 5 star resort. From the goodies left for us to enjoy on arrival to the phone charger in each room, it made everything extra special and like a home away from home!
