It was a delight to return to Kitty’s elegant apartment having been there two years on our first visit to Edinburgh. This time we’d just completed some big multi day walks in Scotland and needed somewhere to completely relax. Clean, tidy and tastefully decorated, the apartment is perfect for two people, with enough space to spread out in the lounge area, a well equipped kitchen and a quiet bedroom with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom is small but there is bath which is a real treat when you are a tired traveller. To get to the apartment one needs to be able to climb up four or five flights of stairs but they are easy to navigate and once you are there you have a superb view of Edinburgh Castle from the lounge window. Amazingly there is hardly any noise from the city below as it seems to be in a less busy street despite being located wonderfully near the Old Town and the Royal Mile. Infact the location is superb on many fronts - for being a tourist and accessing the city generally. We went to see a play at one of the local theatres not far from the apartment, there’s a Sainsburys up the road for groceries, I found an excellent hairdresser close by and we were able to catch a bus just around the corner to take us to the suburbs to explore the Water of Leith walkway. Kitty was there to welcome us on arrival, is a helpful and relaxed host, and easy to contact if necessary. We loved our time in the apartment and we hope to return again sometime.
