Wonderful flat in an excellent location

We really enjoyed our stay in this excellent Marchmont flat. It's very well equipped and has everything you could need for a wonderful stay. Location is excellent. We were able to walk to everywhere we needed. Communication with Lynn was very good and she even let us check out later because no one was arriving the following day which was very helpful as we were meeting our family for brunch round the corner. We'd definitely recommend this flat.

Wonderful property

The flat is nicely presented and very spacious, in a beautiful part of Edinburgh, located a pleasant 30 minute stroll from the city centre. The owner was very helpful and prompt in replying to any queries. She had very kindly provided us with a variety of provisions such as wine, biscuits etc and the flat was very well equipped with everything you could need, from hair straighteners to hand wash. It was very useful having two bathrooms and both bedrooms were spacious, as was the lounge. It’s possible to park very close to the property for free during weekends but there is a charge for week days. Overall we were very impressed with the property and would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic

The apartment was bigger and airier than the photos show. The owner, Lynne had really thoughtfully stocked the apartment with food/drinks/hand wash etc. there were lots of guides and info on Edinburgh. Everything was brilliant quality - the furnishings, bed linens, towels etc. the street had a power outage and we had to contact Lynne at 10pm. She was so helpful and checked with us the next morning that the power was back on. A truly lovely host of a brilliant apartment. The apartment was well located, 15 min walk to the centre, co-op directly opposite and a Sainsburys down the road. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely apartment in south Edinburgh

We are two retired couples visiting the fringe and were lucky to find this superb apartment in Marchmont. The location was excellent. Quiet, good local amenities and only 20-25 minutes to Princess Street. We found it very convenient for visiting the fringe events we had booked for eg Meadows, George Square and Pleasance etc. The accommodation was lovely and spacious, clean and well equipped and we had a really nice welcome from our host Lynn. An excellent host. All in all would definitely come back here and recommend to anyone wanting to visit Edinburgh. Local buses are on the doorstep for f you want to use them.

Perfect place

I LOVE this flat. It is clean, comfortable, homey. It is the best supplied flat in which I have stayed - and I have stayed in several in Scotland and France. It is in a wonderful area .. Marchmont is best ... close to shops, the best cafe (Birchwood) and easy access to buses and to the wonderful Edinburgh parks - especially the Meadows. And I love the little garden - so private and a great place to sit in the sun. And there was sun. I would stay here again - and hope to do so - in an Edinburgh minute. Vivian June 10to 24, 2023 .

Why they chose this property

The house belonged to our mother and we decided that she would love that we opened it up to visitors to Edinburgh as that was what she did most of her life. When she retired to moved the Marchmont, she just loved being part of the community and sitting in the garden and getting to know her neighbours and chatting to passers-by.
