You would be extremely hard pressed to find as wonderfully situated a holiday apartment as this. It is located in a quiet cul-de-sac in Abbeyhill on the edge of the Royal Park of Holyrood, a 650 acre array of hills, lochs, glens, trails and cliffs dominated by the famous 'Arthur's Seat' at 251m (822ft), affording panoramic views of the city but which is relatively easy to climb and very popular with hill walkers. Nearer ground level the apartment is proud to have as a near neighbour the Palace of Holyroodhouse, HM Queen Elizabeth's official residence in Scotland. The Palace is located at the foot of Edinburgh's Royal Mile, a world renowned thoroughfare with its eclectic mix of shops, pubs, eateries and visitor attractions linking the Palace at one end with Edinburgh Castle at the other. Also nearby is the controversial Scottish Parliament building which, love it or loathe it, is certainly worth a visit as is the wonderful 'Dynamic Earth' experience next door to the Parliament. A pleasant walk of a mile takes you to Edinburgh New Town and the shopping experience of another world famous Edinburgh thoroughfare, Princes Street plus, of course Waverley Railway Station and Edinburgh Bus Station with express links to the Airport and all points beyond. Most of the Fringe and Festival venues and of course the Christmas and Hogmanay attractions are located within or close to the Royal Mile and Princes Street areas. For visitors with more energetic pursuits in mind, Meadowbank Sports Centre is only a half mile walk away, as is the Meadowbank Retail Park with a Sainsbury's superstore and other shops. The apartment is however very close to bus routes in the Abbeyhill and London Road areas which link to all parts of the city.

It is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac, on the ground floor of a well maintained building with a secure entry system, clean and tidy communal areas and free parking (via included permit).

A toaster, kettle, teapot and cafetiere are also provided. Hand and dish towels, pot scrubbers and dishcloths are also provided in the kitchen together with detergent and cleaning fluids. Both double bedrooms are carpeted. One has a double bed and the other two singles complete with duvets, pillows, mattress and pillow protectors. Bed linen is provided.

Some of our Guest Book comments.
" After enduring the tough Scottish enviroment, this apartment the perfect place to rest our feeble English bodies. "
" Wonderful apartment. Extremely clean, nicely furnished and everything we needed for our weekend break. We especially appreciated the welcome pack containing all the information we needed for a happy comfortable stay. Apartment is in a great location & we found the leaflets in the apartment extremely useful. We look forward to coming back someday soon.Thank you. "
" Fantastic week at the Fringe! Excellent location (all venues less than 20 mins) Comfortable and with all the necessary utilities. Don't forget Holyrood Park, which Capital city has such a beautiful place? "
" Thank you very much for contributing to out memorable stay in Edinburgh. We enjoyed the city tremendously and truth be told we felt like home at your place. The location was great and we particularly appreciated the time and effort you must have put into preparing everything. From the maps to the valuable information folder to instructions. We could clearly see that it is a labour of love.

Mandy studied in Edinburgh 30 years ago and always loved this part of the city. We have been coming here as a family at least once a year for a holiday and knew we wanted to have somewhere permanent in the city which we could share with others.
James Phillips purchased this apartment in 2013
The apartment is very centrally situated close to the Royal Mile, Holyrood Palace and the Scottish Parliament. There is free parking in a designated parking zone using the permit provided. Despite its central location the apartment is wonderfully quiet and peaceful and its location right on the edge of Holyrood Park opens up a range of excellent walking, cycling, running and hiking activities should you be so inclined.
Fantastic week at the Fringe! Excellent location (all venues less than 20 mins) Comfortable and with all the necessary utilities. Don't forget Holyrood Park, which Capital city has such a beautiful place?
Perfect location, beautifully presented and well equipped apartment. You undersell the proximity to Holyrood Park for the morning run!
We have had a wonderful stay. Lovely inviting flat & brilliant location. Thanks for being so helpful & accommodating!
We drove to Edinburgh through apocalyptic weather (snow blizzards and road closures) and arrived at the apartment early. A quick message to the owner and we were allowed in before the appointed time (a chance to warm up).
The apartment is beautifully decorated, warm and cosy and well equipped, so we immediately made ourselves at home.
The location was brilliant. We were there for the British Swimming Champs, and needed somewhere quiet for my daughter to unwind. We never heard or saw any of the neighbours and the location meant we never heard any traffic.
Come the end of our stay, roads were still closed and the weather was still pretty awful, but the owner called to say if we needed the apartment for another night, it was not a problem and could be arranged, which took a huge weight of our shoulders.
Over all, the apartment is clean, tidy, cosy and very homely ... the owner was easily contactable and very friendly and accommodating and the location was exactly what we wanted (quiet yet easy to get to the centre of town)
A wonder stay even if the weather made getting around difficult. I would defiantly stay here again
(thanks James)
:D
Lovely, clean apartment. Nice quiet area. Really enjoyed our stay and would come back on our next visit to Edinburgh. Thank you.
Everything was great, we just struggled a little with 6 adults using one bathroom, with the toilet in the bathroom.
When traveling with small kids, it helps to have space to unwind after a long day of walking and sightseeing. So a place like this one was ideal for us - close enough to walk to the Royal Mile but tucked away in a quiet, residential neighborhood.
Parents and kids had separate bedrooms, but we had space to eat and spend time together when winding down for the evening. The kids were thrilled with the games available at the apartment as well as the bathtub (as we don't have one at home).
The owners were very helpful in accommodating our unusual flight arrival and departure times. Traveling with little ones is tiring enough without having to drag luggage around as well! So thanks, James & Mandy!
We stayed in a cute ground floor, 2 bedroom apartment just 5 minutes walk from Holyrood Palace. You'd never know we were so close to the hustle and bustle of the Royal Mile. Three generations of family were quite comfortable in this fully outfitted apartment. Sainsbury was less than a 10 minutes walk so eating in was a welcome option. The bus stop was just 5 minutes away where we could travel on public transport and also find a taxi. The owners were very polite and prompt in addressing any questions we had. We look forward to returning!
Great loacation. Walking distance to the Royal mile and Arthurs seat which is a fantastic hike. Having an alloted parking space made this apt. an easy choice as well.
