    Stayed here as our son was getting married. The apartment is lovely and had all the comforts you would expect. Within walking distance of Stockbridge and Princes Street.

    Everything was wonderful, lovely and clean, everything we needed was in the house. Fabulous location, easy access to great shops, pubs, restaurants and tourist attractions. Brilliant host. Definitely want to return.

    Check in was easy and great instructions were given on getting to the property. Kitchen was well stocked and location was near many attractions/restaurants. Only thing I would mention is there are a good bit of stairs involved so not recommended for those with bad knees.

    We all loved it. A beautiful property within walking distance to shopping as well 'downtown' Edinburgh, the castle and various museums. We had everything we needed and the hosts were very friendly and helpful. We would stay here again!

    Absolutely gorgeous house that is on a quiet street, but still a short walk from the royal mile, Edinburgh castle, etc. We never needed our car while there, and if we didn’t feel like walking, there were bus stops close by. The house was beautiful, and I felt like royalty staying here. The hosts were so sweet and responsive, I will 100% stay here again if I return to Edinburgh!

    I loved the accommodations and used the word Home in the title because I felt at home, The home has spacious bedroom and a wonderful dining area and family room. The Kitchen was well equipped and we actually cooked a few meals during our 5 days stay. Bus stop out front just a few steps away. The beautiful fireplaces, crown molding and lovely decor was like a 5 star hotel just with more room and a full kitchen. The owners responded with a few minutes with a couple questions we had during our stay. There we ample number of door keys for large family or friends. Beds were very comfortable and enjoys the rooms with the king size beds and queen size beds. 2

    Beautiful place! Great location as well, we explored and found that everything we needed was with in walking distance. No need for car as the buses will take you everywhere you’ll need to go.
