Description from owner
Description
With the benefit of its own private entrance, 28A Cumberland Street is a one bed-roomed lower basement apartment that can sleep 4. The apartment has a pretty and sunny courtyard garden to the front and a pleasant outlook over a leafy, cobbled Edinburgh lane at the rear.
28A Cumberland Street has free wifi and fast internet speed, whilst situated only 10 minutes walk from centre of Edinburgh. The New Town area also has a number of business hubs offering serviced meeting rooms. We can also offer competitive rates for bookings longer than 4 weeks (please contact us to ask for further details).
The whole apartment has been recently renovated in a traditional, funky Scottish style that is cosy, comfortable together with luxurious touches. Unfortunately it is not suitable for children under 16.
Built in 1820, the one bed-roomed apartment has a kingsize zip and link bed that can be split into 2 singles, 2 bedside tables, chest of drawers and built in wardrobe. There is a contemporary bathroom with a bath that also has a shower over. The large, comfortable living room has a cosy living flame gas fire with 2 modern fireside chairs and a sofa bed that comfortably sleeps 2 additional guests. There is a TV and free wifi. The kitchen is newly fitted and modern with everything our guests would need including gas hob and electric oven, microwave, fridge, washing machine and small separate freezer. There is a breakfast bar which seats two. If guests prefer to eat at a table, there is a foldaway table with 4 chairs which is stored in the apartment for guests' use.
Upon arrival the beds will be made up with luxury Egyptian cotton bedlinen, with fluffy towels for each guest. All gas and electricity usage is included in the price.
The apartment is situated in an ideal location in the heart of the historic UNESCO New Town, just 10 minutes walk from Princes Street. Close to the vibrant areas of Stockbridge and Broughton Street with their cafes, restaurants and independent shops. For scenic walks the tranquil Water of Leith and the colourful Royal Botanic Gardens are both a short walk away. 28A Cumberland Street is ideally suited for all special events and festivals that are organised in the city throughout the year such as the Edinburgh Festival, Edinburgh International Tattoo, Bank of Scotland Fireworks, International Rugby and the Famous New Year Celebrations. Also within easy walking distance are many of Edinburgh's tourist attractions such as Edinburgh Castle, National Museum of Scotland, Gallery of Modern Art, and the Scottish National Galleries, Edinburgh Dungeon, Scottish Parliament, Scots Monument, and Holyrood Palace.
Good bus links, plentiful taxis and tram service nearby mean 28A Cumberland Street is well connected to all parts of the city, including Edinburgh Airport, Waverley and Haymarket train stations. Ample parking is available in the street; parking is free at weekends and from 5.30pm to 8.30am Monday to Friday and metered the rest of the time.
PLEASE NOTE THE APARTMENT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN OR PETS.

“Cumberland St flat”
Lovely flat that has everything you needed, right down to tea and sugar, which we had bought earlier. Nice size living area to relax. Everything spotlessly clean. Only off putting thing for some less fit and agile may be the steps down to the front door and the shower over the bath. The flat is ideally located for access to Edinburgh's Princes And Queen Street etc but you have to bare in mind that the 15min walk is up hill.
