Description from owner

Description

Gorgeous, chic and central I bedroom apartment with all modern amenities sleeping up to four. Minutes walk away from the City Centre, The Royal Mile and Holyrood Palace and Arthur Seat. Set in a quiet street within a bustling area with lots of varied local amenities.

A gorgeous and welcoming ground floor apartment full of charm near to Holyrood Palace and the Royal Mile and sleeping up to four people. It is peacefully situated to the rear of a traditional Victorian sandstone tenement building (1890) within Edinburgh's popular and central neighbourhood of Hillside.

The apartment consists of a bright living and dining area, kitchen, shower room, bedroom and access to the shared walled garden where you can dine at your own outdoor table (weather permitting!).

The street is off the main road and is quiet with hardly any traffic with a park facing the apartment. Free and metered on-street parking is available in the area around this apartment. Just around the corner are a good selection of shops including an excellent artisan baker/patisserie and a brilliant independent wine shop.

The city centre (Princes St.) is 10-15 minute walk from the apartment and buses run every few minutes from the top of the road.

No other city has an extinct volcano in its limits, so climbing to Arthur Seat (which is minutes walk from the apartment), the tallest of Edinburgh's seven hills, is an essential activity for the able-bodied visitor. While you are there why not visit both the Holyrood Palace and the Parliament situated at it's base or take a walk up the Royal Mile to the Castle passing some wonderful shops and establishments on the way.

Fully equipped with gas central heating, Fast WiFi internet, TV with Freeview and DVD player, blutooth speaker, fridge/freezer, washing machine/drying rack/iron/ironing board, hair dryer, electric cooker and plenty of cooking equipment. There is a double sofabed in the lounge enabling up to 4 guests to stay in the apartment. A travel cot is also available on request for an additional fee.

Perfect for a single person, couple or group of friends/family, the flat is bright and modern yet chic and cosy with traditional charm! This is a great base to call your own if you want more than a hotel or serviced apartment can offer.
