About this property
Luxury flat 2 mins from tram stop in the 4th coolest neighbourhood in the world!
This fabulous apartment is set in the heart of Leith, voted the 4th coolest neighbourhood in the World (TimeOut 2021). Leith is awash with fabulous restaurants for every taste and budget with 2 of the 3 Edinburgh Michelin Star restaurants a 10 min walk away. The apartment is perfectly located for all main tourist attractions with The Royal Yacht and Princes St a 20 min walk away, with the Old Town just beyond. This neighbourhood has a cool cafe culture vibe and is a must visit!
The apartment has been fully renovated in 2022 so everything is brand new (with the exception of some lovely antiques). All the beds have new mattresses to give you a great night's sleep. Including the 2 pull out single beds that are available for parties of more than 6.
Living/Dining/Kitchen
This is a massive space over 11mt x 5mt and is fully equipped with everything you need. It is lit by some quirky antique lights which are complimented by some modern recess soft lighting. The kitchen has everything you need should you want to eat in (although there are so many amazing places to eat in the area you may not need this!).
Master Bedroom
This huge room has a super king bed you can get lost in and also a spare pull-out single bed to make this a family room. It is decorated with lush velvets and sumptuous furnishing to help you really enjoy this special space.
Twin Bedroom
This cosy room has 2 single beds and a further spare pull-out single for families. It has some fabulous art work and up-cycled antique furniture.
King Bedroom
The rich red walls give this room a very Royal feel especially with the two fabulous seats. The giant chandelier also makes this room feel super luxury.
Bathroom
Fitted with a luxury claw foot bath and decorated with Italian prints and antique candelabra to ensure you have an indulgent soak in the deep tub.
Shower Room
The rain shower in this space has great water pressure to ensure you have a great start (or end) to your day.
Toilet
Sperate to the bathing rooms to make sure no one interrupts you!
Hall
Luxurious tartan carpet adds toe the very Scottish Castle feel of this apartment. The antique bookcase has plenty of books and games to keep you occupied.

Fun location, in walking distance to everything you would need. Great pubs, coffee shops, grocery stores and even a place to buy dart which we were looking for. Would stay again
Our family of 5 had a fantastic stay here. The property is spacious and lovely, and in a great location. Highly recommended.

When we walked into this property we were excited at the unique elegance of the interior of this flat. It was ideally located near reataurants and pubs to enjoy.
We also used the tram (5 pounds per person per day for unlimited trips) which allowed us to get to Old town Edinburgh in 3 wtops to St. Andrew square. We really enjoyed our stay and the location is great.
Perfect for a group of 5 friends. Leith is a gorgeous part of the city with loads of great places to eat, drink and shop. The location of the apartment was great for trips to Edinburgh
Really great location and beautiful, clean home. We walked to old town everyday (the tram is right outside if that’s your preference) - it’s only about a mile away. Lots of yummy restaurants and friendly people!
This flat was perfect! Beautiful decorations, comfortable beds, up to date bathrooms, and great location with places to eat and grocery shopping close by. If we come back to Edinburgh, we would choose to stay here again, no question!
It is a beautiful property with all the amenities you could need and even some toiletries! A few instructions for appliances would have been helpful but not a problem. Great location and some lovely places to eat in Leith as well. And beautiful brunch in urban jungle and tapas meal in la casa. Would recommend staying here
Great location, close to the tram line so easy access to the city centre.
The apartment is spacious and has everything you need for a comfortable stay.
I would definitely stay here again!
Thank you.
Really excellent location. House was neat and tidy and had everything that it promised. We'd definitely recommend this for anyone travelling to Edinburgh
Everything was just perfect, beautiful apartment for a long weekend stay in Edinburgh, everything in the apartment was to a very high spec, also minutes from the tram for a very short journey to central edinburgh and very short journey to the pub, restaurants in leith definitely be back again
Overall, a very clean and well centred place. It was east to get to city centre by tram or buses. My only regret was one toilet apar frim that it was beautiful l, clean and very spacious. Would definitely return to the property 👌.
This apartment was great. It looks exactly as the pictures show. We were a party of 7, we were all happy and comfortable. The location is great with a tram very close by.
The kitchen was functionable with all the things you need to feed your family. 2 supermarkets just up the block. This place is a gem. If you book it you are winning. Host was great and very responsive.
Can’t fault the accommodation. Spacious, well resourced and ideal location. Parking was an issue as not outside property, but a 5 minute drive away to a trading estate where I just had to leave the car and hope for the best! Communication not great. Had no idea about parking until after we’d arrived and unloaded so could potentially have got a ticket. And still waiting for a response for another issue but we’re back home!
This was the perfect place for our group of 8 on the unhappy occasion of a family funeral. The family grew up just one street over, were my in-laws spent over 60 years of their lives together before moving away to the west coast 4 years ago. The neighborhood brought back all the nostalia for my husband and his siblings and especially my mother-in-law. It was great walking through the neighborhood and visiting some of the same shops and restaurants they had visited as children & teens. The flat itself was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. I couldn't believe how spacious it was, it slept all 8 of us comfortably with the 2 pull-out/trundle beds and having 2 showers made getting ready for the funeral in the morning very easy. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to have a couple family meals. Overnight street parking right in front was free from 530pm to 830am, Free daytime parking at the hosts warehouse was available within a short walk. I was weary at first as this was our first time using a VRBO rental and there was a couple of negative reviews but after reading the negatives, I realized that it was most likely people who are unfamiliar with the area and/or Scotland in general because the complaints were about things I find to be pretty standard in Scotland (as an American who has visited often due to visiting family). shower controls are different, older buildings are not always handicap accesible, the city can be noisy and there is usually graffiti.
