My daughter was preparing to study at the University of Edinburgh and this was the perfect place to stay for us to explore and prepare. We very much enjoyed our stay.
Cozy home-like place, conveniently located, and steps away from grocery shopping. Plenty of cafés and restaurants. Our host (Alastair) was very communicative and extremely helpful. Funky beat-up entrance through the back of the building, up three flights of stairs--but the apartment is great and has a well equipped kitchen.
Lovely space with in 2 blocks of the Royal Mile. Very convenient to all places we wanted to see. Rooms and beds were nice and comfy. Host was easy to get in touch with. Just loved Edinburgh!
Great apartment in a great location to see all the sights within Edinburgh.
A great apartment with lots of room to move around. It’s close to all the sights in the city and many really great restaurants. It had all the necessities we needed four our three nights stay. The hosts were lovely as well.
The place was perfect for my husband, myself and my daughter (who just finished a semester at the University). Location was perfect. Flat was clean. Thanks for sharing you place.
Wonderful stay in Edinburgh for our family of 6! Property was decribed perfectly. Location is great. Easy walk to the Edinburgh train station. Alastair was a great host and met us upon arrival. Would definitely stay here again.
The apartment was perfect for our stay. We were 4 adults (family members) and had everything we needed. The location is perfect with many destinations within walking distance and the neighborhood itself is great. Wonderful host!
Alastair was a wonderful host! Dinner recommendations were perfect for us! Thank you for answering us so quickly with any of our questions while we were in town 😊. Great apartment close to everything. We enjoyed our stay so much and hope for another visit in the future!
Apartment was very comfortable, and had everything we needed. Neighborhood is busy, and so close/walkable to everything. Great views, good food nearby, helpful dining & atteaction suggestions from Alastair, and bonus points for a really well-chosen shelf of books.
Host welcomed us upon arrival. Great little apartment, perfect for my daughter and I. We were there for a month. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and well heated - important in January! Well equipped kitchen and new appliances Walking distance to most anything you want to see. Every type of food imaginable available within a couple of blocks. We had a wonderful time, Edinburgh is an amazing city.
The flat looks exactly the way the pictures look and it was so homey and cozy. It's within walking distance of pubs, restaurants and shopping and Alastair was incredibly helpful and very prompt in his responses. Would definitely recommend!
The flat was clean and tidy and was perfect for the 4 of us. Beds were comfortable and really appreciated the washer for a few loads. Good communication with Alistair and he made recommendations for a fantastic Sunday roast. The location was great – only a 10 minute walk to the Royal Mile and yet felt a bit away from all the tourists. Lots of great restaurants really close by. Would happily stay again.
This flat was clean, comfortable, and conveniently located within walking distance of the Royal Mile, restaurants, bus stops, and shops. Being on the third floor with bedrooms on the opposite side of the street, it was also quiet for the busyness of the location. Alastair was a great host.
My friends and I stayed in this property for 3 nights and we couldn't fault it. Great location (few mins walk to the old town), looks exactly like in the pictures, clean and even things like coffee/sugar/shower gel all available. Although we've never met the owners in person (due to them being away during our stay) they were amazing, nothing was too much trouble and the communication from the minute of us booking the flat was great and reassuring. The only shame was that we couldn't stay longer!
This property is great! Just a bit off the congested Royal Mile but close enough to get there in a few minutes. The kitchen and bathroom are modern and roomy. Everything was very clean. The beds were very comfortable and the bedrooms have the most amazing view of Arthur’s seat. There are many restaurants on the same road and a Tesco Express where you can get groceries or any supplies you need. You will definitely enjoy your time in Edinburgh if you stay here.
Alastair was a helpful, kind, generous host. His apartment was at the center of Edinburgh which was a plus for my family of five (all adults with different programs and needs). The apartment was cozy, with an organized kitchen, shampoo, and shower gel, and comfy mattresses. He let us check in earlier as we landed early in the morning which was polite. I recommend this apartment!!!!

We absolutely loved our time at Alastair's property. Everything was impeccably maintained, with quality appliances throughout and some of the most comfortable beds we've experienced. The decor is beautifully done – it has that warm, homely feel that makes you want to curl up and stay forever.
The location couldn't be better, whether you're exploring the city or getting children settled at the nearby universities. But what really made our stay special was Alastair himself. He went above and beyond as a host, sharing wonderful local tips and making sure we had everything we needed.
We genuinely wish we could have extended our stay, but now we completely understand why this place is booked solid! If you get the chance to stay here, don't hesitate.
Thank you for everything, Alastair – you're truly a gem!
Our host Alistair was amazing! He was super responsive - not just about the property but everything Edinburgh related. The location was fantastic - it was a short 15 minute walk to almost everywhere we wanted to go. The apartment was clean, comfortable and well appointed. The beds and linens were very cozy, coffee, tea and ice cubes were a lovely touch that was much appreciated. Lots of supermarkets close by that are open late for snacks and groceries. We would have stayed longer if we could have!!
