Kitty made us very welcome with useful instructions on getting to the flat. The accomodation was really comfortable and warm, with deep sofas, great bed and bedding and wonderful views. We could look up at the castle from the front and peep into back gardens from the kitchen window. In an older building, we really felt part of Edinburgh. Next door is a Michelin star restaurant. Within minutes we were at Grassmarket, the Mile, the Castle and an easy walk to the Festival Theatre. Sainsburys just up the road. Just lovely.
