Walk along the Royal Mile from an Elegant Apartment
Enter into a magical courtyard off the Royal Mile guarded by four blue and gold dragons and you step back in time to a mystical period. The property dates from 1790 but has been sympathetically upgraded. The wonders of the Edinburgh Festival and Fringe are right on your doorstep, or, if you prefer, close the door and people watch from your bedroom or living room which look straight on to the Royal Mile. You really couldn't get a better position to enjoy the Castle, the Palace, Arthurs Seat or the wonders of the Old Town of Edinburgh. Entire property. I will be in the local area and always on hand if you have a question or an issue. Set in the heart of Old Town, the flat is steps away from the vibrant boutiques, craft shops, pubs, and restaurants that line the area’s quaint streets and alleyways. It’s an ideal stepping off point for visiting many museums and historic sites. This apartment is based on the Royal Mile where tour buses leave on a regular basis as do taxis and local buses. Walking is the name of the game in such a central location! Transport in from the Airport can be by bus or tram and both stops are a 5 minute walk up the hill to the flat.

Two double bedrooms (one can become two single beds), sleep four in cosy luxury. A stylish home-from-home, bang in the centre.

Home from home on the Royal Mile
Spacious and bright rooms with large original sash windows provide a gorgeous light to this hidden Edinburgh gem a few steps away from the Royal Mile. The bedroom is fitted with king-size bed, feather bedding, and wooden window shutters to ensure the best sleep possible during your stay. Iconic Design Classics such as Jean Prouvé chairs, and Serge Mouille lamps happily co-exist with antique local finds. A beautiful & stylish retreat to escape to - we are sure you will love your stay.
