This was the perfect place for us !!!!!! While not on premiss, James was a wonderful host. The flat is very comfortable and nicely decorated. James even stocked-up the fridge with basics for us (including wheat free and lactose free items). The neighborhood is not the prettiest in Edinburgh, but it is safe and very centrally located, which makes almost any destination either a short walk or a single bus route away. Lots of pubs, bakeries, food shops and take-ways within a 10 minute walk. For a real treat check out the Gardener's Cottage restaurant for dinner or Sunday brunch - a 15 minute walk away. We would gladly recommend this listing it to our closest friends and stay there again.
