We had a great time here. The flat is located on the 3rd and 4th floors of a 200+ year-old Edinburgh apartment building in "New Town". The flat is awesome. Clyde has modernized it and provided it with comfortable beds, a nice family/sitting room and a great kitchen. The views from the top floor bedroom, overlooking the New Town gardens, the church steeples and the Firth of Forth, were great. The dining area in the kitchen has wonderful morning sunlight and we all treasured eating breakfast and watching the view.
There are literally dozens of great restaurants within a 1-2 blocks walk -- we dined as several and had great meals (make reservations early!). While the flat is on the quiet side of New Town (on Queen Street), it is one block from the very hip area of George Street with many trendy and fun places.
There are some many great places in Edinburgh for eating or sightseeing. The flat is 15 minute walk from StockBridge (gotta see the Sunday Market!), 10-15 minutes walk to Rose Street and the main gardens in front of the Castle and 15-20 minutes walk to the Castle itself.
We stayed for five days and it was a great way to just absorb the feel of the city.
What a fun city! We can recommend it enough!
Clyde was a conscientious and friendly host. He met us at the door, helped carry luggage up, recommended restaurants and checked in on us during our stay to make sure all was well (it was).
We would heartily recommend both Clyde and the flat again!
