We booked this home well in advance knowing that we were travelling in July with 12 people. We couldn’t have chosen a better location for us. After touring for a few days witha driver we stayed 3 nights in Edinburgh left to our own whimsy, but found the hop on hop off bus to be great and could walk anywhere else that we needed from our home.
The 75 stairs to the room are not for the weak hearted but we were forewarned and learned to love the circular flight up by the end of the week.
We had 6 couples share the apartment and were able to access local shopping markets and have our own meals and breakfast in the morning as well as drinks in the wonderful sitting room at night.
The home is historic but has many modern amenities In the kitchens and bathrooms and met our needs completely. We were even entertained by a concert one night from the castle grounds next door, we were able to enjoy the music from the common room while having a drink and watching the many party goers down below.
An absolute gem of a place!
