Catherine's flat is a beautifully renovated and comfortable apartment within what she calls a "typical Edinburgh tenement" by the canal. It has plenty of natural light, good heating and a comfortable bed.
The flat is a 20 minute walk to the centre of town, or a somewhat shorter bus ride. There are three easy bus options to get you into the centre of town, of which we found the 10 the best.
Catherine was a very welcoming and flexible host, which was a great match for our off-peak train tickets.
We really enjoyed our stay.
