We were greeted by Sheila as Derek was unavailable. She is a wonderful and thoughtful person and made us feel very welcome. Derek was very communicative prior to the trip so we knew exactly how to get to the apartment. The home was even better than what is shown in the pictures and we were very sorry to leave. Both Sheila and Derek have put a lot of thought and care into making their place a very nice home away from home. We loved Edinburgh and the flat. We are looking forward to returning some day.
