About this property

Flat With Castle Views in a New Town Georgian Townhouse

This beautifully presented 2-floor apartment combines original Georgian splendor with all the comforts of a modern home. Built in 1792 for Lord Cranstoun, an accomplished Royal Navy officer, this spacious 3 bedroom property is the perfect base from which to explore Edinburgh.

Located in the heart of the New town, 1 minute walk from George street. This flat will comfortably accommodate 6 people with 3 bedrooms. The default configuration is two super king-size rooms and one twin. Alternatively you can have 2 twin rooms (if requested in advance). There are 2 en-suite bathrooms and a further sizeable family bathroom.

The property has a spacious living room plus a separate kitchen / dining area. It’s worth noting that the front aspect of the property benefits from superb views of the Castle to the south, and the Firth of Forth to the north.

The whole property will yours for the duration of your stay.

1 minute walk from George street, Edinburgh`s prestigious shopping and restaurant area. You`ll be spoilt for choice for restaurants and bars in this area.

For something a little quieter, try the Cambridge or Oxford bars on Young street or Fishers in the City on Thistle Street. If you`re looking for something particularly Scottish, why not pay a visit to the Scotch Malt Whisky Society, just around the corner at 28 Queen Street.

Edinburgh Waverley is a 15min walk. If you’re coming in from the airport, the closest tram stop on Princess street is 7 mins walk away. Edinburgh bus station is also close by with a 10 min walk. Edinburgh is well serviced by buses.

It should be noted that this is a double upper apartment which means it is situated over two floors at the top of the building and as is common in most Edinburgh apartments there is no escalator or service lift. It is probably not best suited if you have mobility issues. Please also let us know if you’d prefer the two bedrooms with zip & link beds made as singles or as a super king size double.
During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from George Street. The apartment offers a kitchen and 3 bathrooms.

Location was amazing. And the host immediately mailed my son a forgotten wallet without even charging us - which I found gracious!

The location was perfect. It was clean, roomy, and had great character. The only caution would be the number of stairs to get to the apartment level and then the additional stairs inside. This might be a challenge for some. Overall a wonderful place that I would recommend.

Great location and huge space for a family. We had a great time with our toddler and all the toys and books they had available. The location was perfect and walking distance to everything. The parking situation was fine and the recommended lot was about 20 minute walk which isn’t bad. The flat had views of the castle and near a park. My only concern was all the stairs with our toddler but we did just fine. Highly recommend staying here for a great family friendly spot!
