We would really recommend Claire’s place! The accomodation feels very homely - with great heating, washing machine, cooking facilities, fluffy bedding, and plenty of thoughtful touches that make the space really functional. It is private, cosy, and a lovely space to come back to after a day out in the wintery cold! The accomodation was at least a 20 minute walk into Waverley Station/ Carlton Hill area, though it is along main streets lined with food places etc. Very close to a couple of car rental places too which made sense for us (heading into the highlands).
