About this house rental

Set in the picturesque and upmarket Cramond Village, this extraordinary six-bedroom, three-bathroom villa perfectly combines period grandeur with modern sophistication. The property sits close to the River Almond, Cramond Beach Promenade, and the tidal Cramond Island - said to have inspired Treasure Island.

Within easy reach of Edinburgh’s city centre, this home offers a rare blend of tranquillity and convenience. You’ll be close to the city’s cultural attractions and literary landmarks - including the neighbourhood that inspired Harry Potter and a short drive to Outlander filming locations.

This luxurious villa provides the perfect balance of privacy, space, and comfort - ideal for families, groups, or discerning travellers seeking an unforgettable Edinburgh experience.
