Loved the entire experience!
We were only able to stay two days, but the location is fabulous close to grocery, restaurants, and our favorite pub “The Oxford”, just a few doors down. Very quiet at night and peaceful for a large city. Royal Mile is a simple 30 min walk. Stay was made even better with a wonderful basket of treats and wine. Showers and Bedrooms were fantastic as well!!! Only great things to say and hope to visit again very soon!!!

Spacious property in central location
Perfect stay for our son’s wedding in central Edinburgh. Easy to find. Garage for the car nearby-very handy. Enough room for us to have our separate space but come together in the communal areas. Tasteful decoration. Well equipped kitchen. Spotless & comfortable.

Really good set up for a family get together
This property suited us very well for what we wanted. Good sized bedrooms and plenty living accommodation in a central venue. It was easy walking to the various events we had planned. Beds were comfy, nice fluffy towels and good seating areas. The welcome hamper was very nice. Communication with the manager was also good. There was some street noise to be aware of though.

Top Notch accommodations for our 6 nights in Edinburgh!
Location could not be better. Old Town, Castle, stores, theaters, restaurants all walkable from here. Room set ups comfortable, roomy yet cozy. Kitchen well equipped, perfect eating space for our family of 6. Even enjoyed the multi-levels and getting “stair exercise”. Laundry facilities really came in handy after 6 nights in the “Highlands” before our arrival. Really enjoyed our stay and would choose it again if available!

Perfect stay in the perfect part of town!!
Our family of 5 adults and a teenager all agreed this place was spectacular! The location was perfect, right around the corner from what became our favorite coffee shop, it had easy access to all the things we wanted to see. The home was very comfortable and spacious, there was a room for everyone. The hosts had a welcome basket and stocked the fridge with water, milk and orange juice! Everything was clean, the beds were comfortable, the showers were hot and relaxing. We also loved the washer and dryer! We would absolutely come back if we're ever in town again!

Beautiful Accommodations and Great Location
6 of us (three couples) stayed at this town home for two nights during a trip in the UK. The house is quite large with many sitting areas and bedrooms, and is appointed very well. You can tell the owners are architects with all of the furnishings and special details. I appreciate them being an architect myself. There was a generous welcome basket with some treats and drinks on our arrival. Wish we could have stayed in Edinburgh longer to enjoy the home and the sites. Would highly recommend! Good price for a nice home in a great location! Thank you Graham and Sarah!

Absolutely AMAZING home!
If only every property rental could be like this one!! We enjoyed our Edinburgh stay so much that the rest of trip just could not measure up! This home is perfect from top to bottom. The welcome basket of treats and basics stocked in the refrigerator is not only an excellent touch, it also helped to make us feel immediately at home. It’s hard to be away from your comforts but this house enhanced our stay to give us a proper holiday. Edinburgh is a gem, the people are fantastic and if you get a chance to stay at this property, you will definitely want to come back. We can’t wait to visit Scotland again and will only stay here when we return! All bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless, comfortable and spacious. A million thanks for a superb stay!!

Perfect!
We were a group of 7 and this exquisite town house was perfect. Awaiting us was a lovely welcome basket of goodies. The information they left for groceries stores, appliance use etc. was great. However, it was the town house itself that was just so lovely. It was ideal for morning planning and evening debriefing (with a wee dram or some wine). It is perfectly located with shopping and sites (Dean's Village, Royal Mile ) near by. We had a least one stop at he Oxford (for Ian Rankin fans). We would highly recommend this vrbo and should we find ourselves in Edinburgh again would be delighted to stay here again. Thank you Christine for your excellent communication when we found ourselves in a bit of limbo hiking in the highlands.

Wonderful townhouse, perfect location.
This wonderful townhouse was located in a perfect city center location. It is in walking distance to just about everything your site seeing heart desires, also a ton restaurants and shopping. The townhouse is 3 levels. Bottom level has a living room, bedroom and separate bathroom. The 2nd level has a 2nd living room, a small single sized bedroom, the kitchen and dining area. The 3rd level has 2 large en-suite bedrooms. The street the home sits on is quaint and historical looking with the cobblestones. The home itself is restored beautifully. The only minor suggestion I have is to possible replace the carpet in the carpeted areas such as the 1st level bedroom with something softer. The carpet now has a rough texture and not comfortable on bare feet. Again it is a very minor suggestion. This home is a great place for family, friends, or just about anyone.

Beautiful Home - Comfortable, Spotless, Perfect Location!
Beautiful property - every detail taken care of! Spread out over 3 floors - plenty of room for everyone! We had 6 of us and we all had our own space and plenty of areas to congregate together to talk over plans or play a game with a glass or two of wine! Beds - all comfortable! Showers - wonderful! So many little details throughout the home. Located so conveniently to the heart of Edinburgh - easy for exploring with numerous restaurants, pubs and shopping nearby. Communication with our host was easy and all instructions were clear and concise. Our family so appreciated the welcome basket with goodies, wine and coffee!! Thank you so much for your kindness!!! This home is lovely - beware of the stairs if you have mobility guests - but otherwise everything (and I mean everything) was perfect!!! Hope to visit again one day!

Great Location
The location is a 15 minute walk from Waverly bridge drop off for airport bus and 25 minutes to the castle. Neighborhood was safe with almost zero nighttime noise. Multiple levels so if you have someone with mobility issues you probably should move on. Liked having 2 master suites, lots of room to spread out over the 3 levels. Communication with host was great and welcome basket a nice touch. Washer and Dryer are two separate units..... so appreciated and much more efficient than the combo units we experienced elsewhere. Loads of restaurants within 5 minutes. Would stay here again!
