All round excellent experience, with accommodation much as described. Location is excellent, tucked in on the eastern edge of the New Town, just below Calton Hill and part of the Broughton area, a vibrant and friendly community, and somewhat less expensive then Central Edinburgh. An easy walk (10 minutes) takes you up the hill to the Old Town, and the Botanic Gardens about 20 minutes walk in the other direction.

Though the instructions and entry to the accommodation were simple and straightforward, Cathy was on hand to welcome me and "show me the ropes". We were blessed with dry weather and plenty of sunshine, so we were out most of the time. A wet and windy spell would be a bit of a challenge as the accommodation's small size would make drying off/sheltering a bit tricky.
