Situated in a traditional A-listed Georgian terrace in Edinburgh city centre – enjoy all that Edinburgh has to offer with ease, comfort and practicality when staying in this second-floor apartment. Cosy interiors dressed in modern country-style designs create a snuggly spot to curl up after a day of sightseeing. With plenty of space to sprawl out, there is more than enough room for a group of four to enjoy socialising and catching much-needed moments of solitude here. And despite this home's central location, you'll find a nice bit of peace and quiet here too. Should you be in town on business, you'll find space to work in the living room with little distraction – other than the blissful views overlooking nature from the windows. Since you'll be within short walking distance from most of the city's sought-after sights, shops and restaurants – there won't be much need for the use of public transport here either. Meaning you can lap up a fuss-free stay – only a fifteen-minute stroll away from Edinburgh Waverly.

About New Town
Edinburgh’s New Town isn’t new at all – it’s a glorious example of 18th-century Georgian town planning and architecture that has rightfully earned its UNESCO World Heritage Status. There’s a lot more than beautiful architecture on offer here though. Located in the centre of the city, it’s a short walk from Waverley Station, and well serviced by public transport. Princes Street, George Street, St Andrew’s Square, and the West End...
