We are looking to rebook as soon as the prices are confirmed for early 2027! Would highly recommend both the company and

Pros: Great location and communication. Onsite staff were really helpful and welcoming were able to access the flat early. Lovely and spacious! Very well equipped and quiet. Lovely furniture and furnishings.

Cons: It was a shame that the bathroom sink was badly damaged/repaired. The bed was a lovely king size however the mattress was very uncomfortable - you could feel the springs unfortunately. The TV was small considering the size of the living space so we had to love the sofa closer so a bigger TV would be a great option. These were minor issues.

Pros: I had a wonderful stay at this apartment in Edinburgh for two days. The location is absolutely perfect—right in the heart of the city, making everything easily reachable on foot. Shops, restaurants, and major attractions were all just moments away, which made exploring the city incredibly convenient. The apartment itself was comfortable and well-situated, making my short stay very enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to experience Edinburgh at its best.
