I enjoyed my stay in Edinburgh, staying at Claire's flat. Although Claire wasn't available at check-in, her husband Andy took over and took care to show me how everything worked around the house. They were also very flexible about check-out time, as they didn't have a guest booked in the next day.
The flat was nicely decorated and cosy, just the right size for one person or a couple. Although I went in December, it was warm throughout - I didn't even need to use the indoor fireplace.
Claire and Andy had put together a fantastic and thorough list of local recommendations for food, entertainment, shopping, walking, basically anything you may want to get up to, even covering some destinations outside of Leith and Edinburgh.
I also greatly appreciated the complimentary local snacks and beer provided. A very welcome touch indeed!
