Panoramic vistas of Charlotte Square, the West End, and Dean Village steal the show at this characterful apartment set in the heart of Edinburgh's New Town. We love the sense of space this Georgian home delivers. Each elegant bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and king-sized bed. There's a made-for-action dining kitchen for lazy brunches. And wait until you see the views from the charming window seat in the separate living room. The private parking will make arriving a cinch, and all the city's hotspots, including the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, and Dean Village are within easy walking distance. Now, how's that for a location?

Local guide
About New Town
Edinburgh’s New Town isn’t new at all – it’s a glorious example of 18th-century Georgian town planning and architecture that has rightfully earned its UNESCO World Heritage Status. There’s a lot more than beautiful architecture on offer here though. Located in the centre of the city, it’s a short walk from Waverley Station, and well serviced by public transport. Princes Street, George Street, St Andrew’s Square, and the West End...
