Vetted by our experts
Opulent yet cosy, the interior of this snug flat is reminiscent of a Scottish medieval castle – and it's more than fitting, considering the stunning views of Edinburgh Castle you'll have out the windows.

Home truths
What the photos might not tell you, but we do
There are three flights of stairs up to the flat and no lift
The WiFi speed can be slow in some parts of the home – it only measured 8mbps during our test
The flat's central location means that it can sometimes get noisy in the living area, especially at night when the bars and pubs are busy – it’s quieter in the bedroom, but if you’re a light sleeper, we recommend bringing earplugs
