Sean made us very welcome and feel very much at home and even went to the trouble of leaving us a bottle of wine and some chocolates as well as having lit some scented candles for our arrival. Viewforth Gardens is in a great area of Edinburgh with lots of nice cafes, restaurants within walking distance, however the flat is so nicely tucked away and quiet on the top floor that you wouldn't know you were in a major city. There's a great American Diner called Tribeca on the corner of Viewforth Gardens that I would recommend for breakfast, but Sean had given us the option of self service breakfast at his flat if we preferred.
