Layout
Set across two spacious floors, this elegant apartment offers generous living areas and a wonderful sense of light throughout. Guests enter via a large welcoming hallway, featuring a traditional staircase with a beautiful cupola that floods the space with natural daylight.
The lower level is dedicated to living and entertaining, with a huge family sitting room, a separate dining room connected to the fully equipped kitchen, and an additional WC conveniently located off the hallway. This layout creates an ideal flow for shared meals, relaxed evenings and social gatherings.
Upstairs, the apartment offers three comfortable bedrooms, including a primary with ensuite shower room, alongside a wow-factor family bathroom, providing two full bathrooms and a separate WC.
There is a magical quality to the light in this apartment that imbues a sense of calm, and the elegant and hugely spacious interior complements the ambiance wonderfully. Warm neutral furnishings sit beautifully against sunny wooden floors, while touches of African, global and Scottish art give the home a delightfully exotic yet homely feel.
Thoughtfully curated throughout, the interior feels airy, refined and welcoming. At The Edinburgh Idyll, you will experience a peaceful city retreat designed for comfort, connection and relaxation.

Exterior
Set within a classic Georgian townhouse in Edinburgh’s prestigious New Town, The Edinburgh Idyll enjoys an enviable location close to cultural highlights including Scottish Gallery and Vue Cinema Omni Centre.
The surrounding streets are characterised by elegant period architecture, wide pavements and a relaxed village atmosphere, all just a short walk from the city centre. You will be within easy strolling distance of Edinburgh Castle, Princes Street shopping and Edinburgh’s Old Town and historic quarters, making this an ideal base for sightseeing while enjoying the charm of a refined residential neighbourhood.
Local Area
This area is part of the original plans for the New Town designed by James Craig. He implemented a grid-style pattern to make travel around the area as simple as possible. His portrait is hanging in the near by National Portrait Gallery. With plenty of lovely little lanes and mews houses you can spend an afternoon looking around, and local grassy areas you will never be short of things to do. There are lovely local restaurants like Stac Polly which offer Modern Scottish Cuisine and bars such as The Stand Comedy Club which offers live comedy shows.

8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the Dublin Street property. We absolutely loved the décor, convenience, and spacious rooms. The Christmas decorations were a lovely touch and made our stay feel extra special :)Check-in was very smooth, and communication with Karen, the property manager, was easy and pleasant throughout our stay.The only minor critiques would be that the Wi-Fi struggled to reach the upstairs rooms, and the kitchen could benefit from a few more amenities for longer stays, such as additional pans, cooking oil, dishwasher tablets, and perhaps an extra set of towels. The beds were slightly uncomfortable, although we did appreciate their generous size.The property is located in a quiet residential area, far enough away to enjoy peaceful nights, yet close enough that everything was within easy reach. Overall, we had a great stay and would happily recommend the property.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2025
The house was so close to all the attractions, beautifully maintained, and had everything we needed for our Thanksgiving holiday. Karen was a great host. Whenever I had questions, she responded right away. Truly more than we expected.
8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2025
Host was great, house was beautiful, but the 72 steps to arrive at front door was way too much! I didn’t see that in the description prior to renting. I am still recovering with my knees!

This is an absolutely beautiful property. Check-in was easy and communication with the host was perfect.
