Fiona’s home is spacious and rich in classic character. Restaurants, grocery marts, and coffee shops etc. are all within easy walking distance. We also walked to Holyrood and Arthur’s Seat and did the hike up and walked back again, so it’s within reasonable walking distance if you want to forgo the drive to these spots!
The washer/dryer is an all-in-one machine and takes quite a bit of time (hours). Make sure you know how to use it before laundering clothing.
Hot water is on a timer which we found somewhat confusing, but we managed to shower and do dishes when the water was hot! Parking on the street out front is free between 5:30 pm and 8:30 am. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!
