Perfect Edinburgh Location

This property is one of the best we have stayed at during our 15 plus years of using VRBO. It is located in a quiet area of Edinburg near a direct and frequent bus route into the heart of the busy city center. However, it is very easy to leave town and access the amazing countryside. We did both it worked perfectly for us. The best part was the property itself. Outfitted to a VERY high standard, very comfortable bed (US King size), fabulous bath, and kitchen with everything we needed. Fiona left us a welcome basket of many things and also included milk and eggs. Watching the coronation from the living room will be something we will always remember, and it was enhanced by watching her beautiful dogs at play in the back garden. Thanks Fiona - expect us back soon!
