Guest Access:

The Neighborhood:

The apartment sits in one of Edinburgh’s most historically rich pockets of the Old Town, tucked just off the Canongate — the lower stretch of the Royal Mile leading towards the Palace of Holyroodhouse. The area has a wonderfully local feel despite being at the heart of the city, with independent cafés, wine bars and restaurants lining the surrounding closes and courtyards.



The Royal Mile is on the doorstep, connecting Edinburgh Castle at the top to Holyrood Park and the dramatic crags of Arthur’s Seat at the bottom. Dynamic Earth, the Scottish Parliament and the Scottish Poetry Library are all within a short walk. For everyday needs, the nearby Canongate has a good mix of shops and delis, and the Farmer’s Market at Castle Terrace operates on Saturdays.



The apartment is exceptionally well placed for exploring the city on foot — the Old Town closes and wynds are right outside, and the New Town, Princes Street and Waverley Station are all reachable in under fifteen minutes. Bus connections along the Royal Mile run frequently and put the rest of Edinburgh within easy reach.



Getting Around:

Edinburgh Trams St Andrew Square (Tram Line), Bus Stop South Bridge (Lines 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 14, 29, 30, 31, 33, 37, 47, 49), Bus Stop North Bridge (Lines 10, 11, 16, 22, 25, 34, 35, 36, 300), Bus Stop Canongate Kirk (Lines 35 & N35).



Other Things to Note:

Wi-Fi may occasionally be affected by area-wide connectivity issues. Please note a noise monitoring device is installed at the property entrance for extra security and to ensure the peace of the property. This device is not located in any sleeping area or bathroom. The elevator is not guaranteed and may occasionally be out of service. Common areas, including stairwells, may vary in condition due to cleaning or maintenance. Photos are as accurate as possible — minor updates may not always be reflected immediately. Management may occasionally need access to the property for inspection, maintenance or viewings (between 8:00 AM and 7:00 PM with reasonable notice). In genuine emergencies, access may be required without prior notice. We’ll always communicate as much as possible and be respectful of your stay.



Interaction with Guests:

You will have the property all to yourself during your stay. We are available by email phone should you require assistance during your stay.
