Elton hosted our month-long stay in Edinburgh. The flat is located near Holyrood Palace at the end of the Royal Mile and walkable within 20 minutes to the Edinburgh Castle or to Prince's Street in New Town. In addition to the Holyrood Palace, attractions nearby include Dynamic Earth, the Parliament Building, Arthur's Seat, Calton Hill, and (for Outlander Fans) Bakehouse Close where the printshop scenes were filmed. Bus route 35 is located a short walk away on Canongate for longer trips to the Royal Britannia.
The flat is located in a quiet area with the only real noise coming from day-time traffic (which you really can't hear inside unless the windows are open). A Tesco Express is located right around the corner so the kitchen can be easily stocked. The kitchen is stocked with dishes, pots and pans, basic cleaning supplies, and a washer/ dryer. All linens are also included in the flat. Everything was clean and tidy. Elton even left a couple of umbrellas and a picnic hamper to enjoy picnics at nearby areas such as Dunbar's Close or the Parliament plaza.
Elton was very responsive to communications and addressing any questions we had.
