Imagine that a much loved relative has invited you to stay at their place in Edinburgh while they are out of town. This relative has the most impeccable style and you steal decorating ideas every time you visit them. Because your family, they make sure to leave thoughtful provisions to make your stay more comfortable: bread, butter, selection of jams, eggs, orange juice, tea, coffee and a whole box of shortbread. Then there are wines, spirits and even chilled glasses in the freezer! That's what staying at Calim's place is like...
You feel at home the minute you walk in the door. The oversized windows look out onto the Royal Mile and all the fascinating life below, when the sun sets at night the skies are tinged with gold and pink.
The apartment is spacious with many comfortable seating areas - we even had a Christmas tree during our post Christmas trip. There are books to read, candles to light and wine to drink (it's an honesty bar so make sure to leave something :)
Slipping out of the "box bed" in the morning was hard to do...that space is so cozy and I slept excellently both nights...but the city awaits. Amazing location and so close to everything that part of town has to offer. We nipped up the street to the Witchery for dinner and around the corner to Devil's Advocate for drinks...
Loved it...you will too!!
