About this property

Beautiful Apartment in Edinburgh City Centre

Designed by the architect William Playfair in the middle of the 19th century, Carlton Terrace, along with the adjacent Regent and Royal Terraces, forms part of Edinburgh's prestigious New Town district.
This comfortable one bedroom apartment within Carlton House has recently been refurbished and furnished. Situated on Carlton Terrace, one of Edinburgh's most elegant cobbled streets, this second (USA third) floor apartment is in a prime location for the city centre attractions as well as its famous viewpoints such as Calton Hill & Arthur's Seat. The Royal Mile and Princes Street are both only a 10 minute walk away.
The apartment's position at the rear of the building ensures privacy, tranquillity and a south facing aspect.
Please note, this is a non smoking apartment.
Please also note that there are 2 flights of stairs to reach the apartment and there is no lift so it may not be suitable if you are elderly or have breathing difficulties.

Local Vicinity: As you walk out of the front door of Carlton House and face London Road Gardens, it is difficult to believe you are only a 5 minute walk from the vibrant restaurant and entertainment district of the East End of Edinburgh. The Playhouse Theatre which stages the latest musicals and shows is a 5 min. walk away and Harvey Nichols and John Lewis department stores are also within 5-10 mins. walk. Add another 5 mins. walk and you'll reach the shopping district of Princes Street and George Street.

Parking: Street parking is available on Carlton Terrace on a metered basis from 08:30-17:30 Mon-Fri but with max. stay 4 hours at any one time. Outside of these times, parking is free. You are virtually guaranteed to find a place right outside the property at any time.

Stunning location. Wonderful property
The apartment is fantastic. The photos really don’t do it justice. The rooms are large, beautifully furnished with gorgeous period features. It is superbly well equipped and extremely comfortable. Edinburgh is a stunning city but it will require summoning all your resolve and determination to leave the apartment each day. The location is also excellent - equidistant (about 5 mins walk) from the start of Princes Street and the Royal Mile. We loved our stay and Mark was a superb host responding to queries really quickly. We cannot wait to return!

Edinburgh -a favourite destination
Perfect town accomodation - quiet ,comfortable and cosy. If I had to find any ‘fault’ it would be that the stairs were a fair hike for an older individual. But don’t be put off , it’s a gem.

A great Edinburgh stay
A wonderfully appointed and well-maintained flat in a very quiet residential area, allowing for a great night's sleep even in the middle of the Festivals.

Edinburgh Elegance
Ive stayed in many rentals up and down the country and not many have stopped me in my tracks and made me say WOW in the way this apartment did, Mark's property is really elegant, decorated and furnished with a beautiful style. It is comfortable well equipped and spacious. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom was spacious with ample storage, the kitchen was well supplied with appliances,the lounge was so comfortable a real lovely sofa to sink into in the warm room, a bonus is a bath in the bathroom not just a shower, to soak the bones after a good walk around the city. The apartment is located in a quiet block and a quiet corner of the city, just 10 minutes pleasant walk to the bustling centre. We hired a car for 3 days and had no problems parking in the evening free after 5.30pm, being mindful payment was required during the day to park outside. Mark was a very discreet host answering any questions promptly and checking our stay was ok. We certainly would stay again. After reading my Review if you go ahead and book I'm sure you will not be disappointed

Why they chose this property

I bought this apartment in 2008 as a holiday flat and loved the building and the location so much that I was lucky enough to buy the adjacent apartment in 2012 and I have lived here eversince.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefit of this apartment is the juxtaposition of the proximity to the city centre whilst maintaining a rural feel due to the proximity to Holyrood Park.
