We had a lovely stay at John’s apartment in Stockbridge. It’s a great location - just off the main street of the shops, cafes and pubs of Stockbridge and 15 mins walk from Prince Street - and the apartment is spacious and comfortable.
We were able to bring our dog who was also very happy. There was enough space to bring his crate to sleep in and the little garden at the back gave him a bit extra run around space. We did have to carry him down the steep steps into the flat as he’s not great with steps yet (he’s still young). So something to consider for young or older dogs (or people!)
As others have mentioned, parking in Edinburgh is difficult. Most street parking is permit or 4 hour max stay. If you can avoid bringing the car, do.
Overall a great stay in Stockbridge. We would recommend John’s space.
