The Edinburgh / Lothians / Edinburgh/Midlothian region


Perfect for a year round city break, Edinburgh is one of Europe's most beautiful cities. From the spectacular castle, through the rambling wynds and closes of the Old Town to the Georgian splendour of the New Town, it is a joy to explore. Add to this the galleries, theatres and museums, the great night-life, the restaurants of every type and budget and shops from department stores to boutiques - high end to kitsch - and you can see why Edinburgh is such a popular destination.
What's more, our apartment is so central that most of the many attractions of the city are within walking distance of your (very comfortable) home-from-home.
Within 5 minutes walk of the Playhouse theatre and the bars, clubs and restaurants of the Omni Centre and the Leith Walk area, you will easily be able to experience the delights of the city.

Guestbook for Edinburgh CityCentre Apartment
"Just a short note to say how much we all enjoyed the week-end in the flat and in Edinburgh. It all worked so well - the location, facilites, space and we even managed to use the patio - after this winter that was an added bonus! Above all else we very much appreciated your warm welcome. I'm sure that we will be back. Thanks again from all of us." (March 2010)
"We enjoyed a lot our stay in Edinburgh, the house was very nice and comfortable so as we want to suggest it to other people who want to go there!" (March2010)
"Un grand YES pour cette location à 500 m des bus pour le centre ville. Propreté, décoration rafinée, literie de qualité, sans aucune nuisance sonore : bref l'idéal pour de bonnes vacances. We are 6 and everybody apreciated the location. Suzan is really available. Thank u for your trust." (February 2010)
"Magnifique appartement disposant de tout le confort possible. Idéalement situé, il permet facilement de profiter de la ville sans en avoir les inconvénients (bruits, parking...). Susan est charmante et l'accueil est digne d'un palace (Chocolats sur les oreillers, produits d'accueil). C'est vraiment parfait. Merci" (February 2010)
"The unit was very nicely decorated and maintained. The equipment in the apartment was most substantial and of very good quality. We could not have asked for a more appropriate or more well kept apartment. The owner was most gracious in pointing out the surroundings to us. We would highly recommend this unit. What also was very nice were the touches welcoming us: chocolate, wine, cookies, breads, jams, butter, etc." (2009)
