Summary: This flat had so much charm and felt welcoming from the moment we arrived. The location is absolutely ideal—right on the Royal Mile and a stone’s throw from everything. Being able to step outside and immediately explore the heart of the city made our stay incredibly special and convenient.After full days of sightseeing, it was a pleasure to return to such a comfortable and thoughtfully arranged space. The character of the flat added to the overall experience and truly made it feel like a home away from home.We had a wonderful stay and would happily recommend this property to anyone looking for an unforgettable city experience.
