Situated in the heart of Newington, a vibrant area of the city, with a relaxed and charming feel… The Newington Residence boasts one of the best locations in Edinburgh. The perfect spot for any discerning traveller, this apartment has it all. Newly renovated throughout, this impressive property presents contemporary interiors that sit perfectly alongside original retained features; ornate cornicing, exposed sanded floorboards and high ceilings – all typical of old Edinburgh Victorian architecture. You really are spoilt for choice in this superb neighbourhood, with an array of shops, fabulous cafes, boutiques, restaurants, and pubs literally right on your doorstep
The living room, decorated in stylish tones, is generous in size and displays a beautiful bay window, original fireplace and comes complete with a large flat screen TV and unlimited complimentary WiFi. A dining table allows for a sophisticated sit-down occasion for six guests.
Full of light, the spacious, contemporary kitchen offers a more relaxed dining experience, and is well equipped with a washing machine, dryer, oven, hob, microwave and plenty of cutlery and crockery for those wishing to dine in…though with so much choice on your doorstep we are willing to bet that most will succumb to the temptation of trying a different restaurant every night.
There are three gorgeous double bedrooms to choose from, with each one decorated in calming, neutral tones… this, along with traditional, wooden window shutters, ensures a peaceful night’s sleep. There’s plenty of room to stretch out, as two bedrooms boast super king size beds that benefit from the flexibility of a hotel style zip ‘n’ link which can be set up as twin beds on request. The third bedroom has a double bed.
Please note we do not provide hypoallergenic bedding at our properties.
Two newly installed, slick shower rooms with spacious walk-in showers, and one featuring a state-of-the art rainfall shower head, completes this wonderful holiday home.
The apartment is well catered with the local Co-op and Sainsbury’s stores open till 11pm seven days a week within 2 minutes walking distance. And with just a one-minute walk to a bus stop with an extensive network of routes, you couldn’t be better placed to explore the city and beyond.
The Meadows Park is just an easy 5-minute walk, with its terrific children’s playground and a vast open expanse of grassland and tree-lined paths - perfect for summer BBQs. Holyrood Park and Arthur’s Seat is also a short walk, providing an array of hills, lochs, and cliffs, offering a remarkably wild piece of landscape within its 650-acre area. Culture vultures will be kept happy being just a stone’s throw from The National Museum of Scotland. Fancy a pleasant amble? Edinburgh Castle and the historic Royal Mile are just over a mile away.
