Close to the residential area of Newington, which is easy to fall in love with. Vibrant and leafy, this residential area is a 20 minutes walk from Edinburgh Royall Mile. The Victorian architecture and the many independent restaurants and boutiques give Newington a charming and relaxing feel, without all the tourists piling down like in the city center. This area starts directly beyond the Old Town (where the Royal Mile is) were attractions, bars and restaurants congregate. The Meadows are its beautiful "back garden" and the city center is within easy walking distance.

From my home to Old Town Edinburgh will take 30 minutes by foot, or 5 minutes by car. However, just steps from my home, there is a bus stop where you can catch various buses (14, 30, 33, 51 and X95) to Old Town.

Please note that this is a self-check-in property. There is a zero-tolerance policy for smoking in the property. If our team discovers any evidence that this rule has been breached (e.g., smoke smell, ashes, butts, etc.) we fully reserve the right to charge a £300 smoking fee, at minimum.Please also note we do not allow parties, large gatherings, loud noises, or outside guests. Should we receive sufficient evidence of such activity we reserve the right to cancel your stay (without refund) and may involve a security team to evict you. Any associated cost will be charged to you via your security deposit. Local authorities may also be present (if required).

Cozy but not clean

Bugs were along the baseboards in the dining room and required pest control while there. The carpet along with any upholstered furniture (couch and chairs) are covered by blankets and rugs. Not sure what it’s all covering but doesn’t give off a very clean feeling. The bedding was very comfortable. The location is good but on a very busy street corner so traffic noise is easily heard from inside. Property manager was responsive when we contacted them about the bugs.

Nice place, good home base to explore Edinburgh

The place was clean and comfortable for a family of four. It was conveniently located a block ftom the local bus stop where you can catch frequent buses that take you around Edinburgh. Has a kitchen and a washing machine. A bonus was the gym across the street, you can pay by the day, or week if you're staying for just a short time. It's also walkable to a njce golf course which has rental clubs and everything you need to play a round. There are multiple pubs, restaurants, and a market within a 3 to 10 min walk and the neighborhood is very nice. It's also nice that it's just outside of the main bustle of the Royal Mile. A little more serene and away from the crowds. Would stay again.
