this really is a home from home!

Epicurean Clerk is beautifully decorated and furnished. The place was very clean, yet managed to retain a homely, lived-in feel. So much nicer than staying in a b&b, it was real pleasure to come back to a place filled with books, paintings and a piano.

the rooms are huge, with original fireplaces and cosy lighting. and the kitchen has every utensil you could possibly need to cook a proper meal.

the location was perfect, we were able to walk each day to the grassmarket, into town and beyond. and returned by bus when it rained (there are several regular buses from the street outside which cut through town). plus it was a very reasonably priced cab rid home when we stayed out late.

we were lucky enough to stay here for 3 days and when i visit the city again i'll definitely be looking to see if this place is free.

thanks Michele!
