The Central Scotland/Edinburgh region

Edinburgh, the Capital city is a vibrant and exciting destination for a city break at any time of year. Offering a fantastic mix of stunning architecture, history, culture, as well as fabulous shopping, restaurants, pubs, bars, cafes and nightlife. Visit the spectacular Edinburgh Castle, the National and Modern Art Galleries, or simply lose yourself wandering around the fascinating cobbled streets of the Old Town steeped in history, dropping into local pubs, independent boutiques and antique shops along the way. Take in the architecture of the Georgian New Town or relax with a picnic in the beautiful Botanic Gardens. Visit Holyrood Palace then cross the road to tour the stunning new Parliament. Or simply enjoy shopping in Harvey Nichols, the designer shops of George Street or Jenners - the worlds oldest independent department store. Edinburgh is equally lively when the sun goes down with great nightlife and stylish bars, cafes and many restaurants.
There are many interesting walks within the city such as climbing Salisbury Crags or Arthers Seat, our very own extinct volcano. Also highly recommended is a stroll along the water of Leith, through the historic Dean Village and ending at the Gallery of Modern Art cafe, serving fantastic food in a idyllic walled garden.


Edinburgh area

Leith Walk is a thriving and vibrant area of Edinburgh connecting Princes Street with the historic port of Leith.
It is a mixed and colourful community with many interesting restaurants and pubs, old and new to choose from as well as festival venues.
At the top of the walk we have the Playhouse theatre & Omni Centre which holds numerous restaurants and bars, nightclubs and also a cinema. In the opposite direction down the walk you'll reach the trendy Leith Shore with a fantastic selection of cosy bars and excellent restaurants along the waterfront. Further on from the shore lies the Ocean Terminal with a large shopping centre, more cafes and bars and also where the Royal Yacht Britannia is berthed.
Buses run frequently throughout the day and night connecting Leith with the centre of town.

Guestbook

All good in Iona Street... were loving it. It's so cosy and welcoming, we don't want to leave.
L Graham Oct 07

'All exceeded expectations! From an amazingly equipped kitchen to a library with CDs and books, it was tastefully decorated, impeccably clean, and super convenient. It was so nice to be able to have the 3 of us spread out and have some space after 2 weeks of hotels and B&Bs '
Sweetmans July 08
