Ideally located just a one-minute walk from Edinburgh’s Haymarket train station, this beautiful Georgian apartment in the city’s West End district is an ideal base for a comfortable, relaxing stay. Elegantly curated in its decor, the living room is a plush affair with its corniced ceilings, parquet floors, large windows and inviting sofas. The kitchen, meanwhile, is lovely and luminous with a stunning Scandi table ready to host hearty breakfasts while feasting on fourth-floor views and intimate dinners while you watch the city’s lights twinkle. Both bedrooms are pared-back and equally sophisticated, providing a cosy canvas for a dreamy night’s sleep. With a separate office room on hand as well, you’ll have no trouble catching up on work from your stylish home base. Outside of your home, you’re a twenty-minute walk from both Edinburgh Castle and Princes Street’s shops and a fifteen-minute stroll from bucolic Dean Village.
