Be prepared to arrange and pay for the utilities yourself upon arrival.
Though assured otherwise, we arrived to discover the boiler was not running and would need to visit the local Co-op to top up both the gas and electric meters ourselves.
An outsourced company in charge of running the property were easy to deal with over the phone and the £98 utility was reimbursed, though funds would take up to 10 days to return to my account (something to be wary of if you are planning to stay!).
Reading through reviews this is not an isolated incident and it was disappointing that, despite being told it would not be a problem, the situation was still not being handled by the property owners before heating/electricity issues arise for those staying.
There were two other issues with black mould above the shower and the toilet roll provided somehow stained.
Otherwise, the property was nice and the location is superb. Stockbridge is the perfect place to stay for those visiting Edinburgh.
