We had a good stay in Porty for two full weeks in October during lockdown, and John's cosy flat reminded us of what we have loved about living in Edinburgh. The beds were comfortable, and though the flat is not huge, having the extra bedroom with two single beds made for a perfect dressing room for us and we could spread out our work. We had unique needs, as we were working 12-14 hours a day from the flat and so needed strong wi-fi. This was not usually a problem, and the times when it cut out, John did everything he could to make sure it worked, even calling Virgin to come out and re-set the node. And to success!! We felt like we had great privacy even though John's flat is right across the hallway. The ability to arise and open up the windows to look down the block to the sea with a morning cup of tea was such a treat. In a time of lockdown, being on the west end of Portobello Beach, away from the touristy/busy bits, was just the tonic we needed. I miss our morning walk down the boardwalk to our favourite coffee stand already. And the Little Chartroom stand for exquisite lunch! Will definitely stay at John's place again.
