We stayed for 4 nights in this beautiful top floor flat in the Marchmont area of Edinburgh. The flat is spacious, spotless and stylishly decorated and furnished. I was going to write that it reminded me of my student days at Edinburgh Uni...but then again that would give the wrong impression, it being way too neat, clean and tidy to be compared to a student flat! What reminded me of being a student was the traditional tenement flat with the stone steps and the obligatory bike in the stairwell. Being on the top floor the light and the views are marvellous (one of the reasons I chose it).
Rebecca had thought of every detail....down to a jar of sweets for the kids and a bottle of wine for us. Communication was excellent even though Rebecca was out of town during our stay.
We were a party of 2 adults and two 12 year old boys. Despite the boys' room belonging to younger kids they loved it, especially the Lego.
The walk from the flat into the centre of town is easy and very pleasant and takes you past some must-see parts of Edinburgh: the Meadows, Greyfriars Bobby, the Royal Mile (the list is endless, in fact, as it depends which way you walk!).
Thank you Rebecca for loaning us the use of your home, we had a great time.
