About this property
1 Bellevue Terrace - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms
No 1 Bellevue Terrace is a well proportioned Georgian two bedroom self catering apartment with a contemporary twist. Spacious, bright and fresh, it is a perfect holiday bolthole in the centre of Edinburgh.
The large apartment has recently been tastefully restored with a smart breakfasting kitchen, carpets and fresh colour schemes throughout. Original details such as the period flagstones in the entrance hall have been exposed, which set a stylish tone on entering.
This luxury self catering apartment has two spacious bedrooms and can sleep four comfortably. The double bedroom, with a king sized bed, has two huge windows offering peaceful garden views to the rear. At the front, the bright and airy twin room has charming views over public gardens and a colonnaded neo classical church. Both rooms offer generous storage space. There is also a cotbed available.
Located in central Edinburgh, the apartment has an enormous drawing room with double windows, which retains classical Georgian features and elegant 18th century proportions, a classical marble fireplace, which forms the centrepiece of the room and three comfortable sofas. The kitchen, with leafy garden views to the rear, seats six and is well equipped with an integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher, stainless steel oven and hob, in addition to a washing machine. Leading off the hall is the bathroom with WC, bath and hand held shower. Benefiting from a main door on the ground floor, No 1 Bellevue Terrace is particularly suitable as holiday accommodation for families with young children and the senior generation alike.

We loved our stay here. The house is beautiful and the location was great for us - a nice quiet street but close enough to everything that it took 10-20 min to be where we wanted to be. The host was great and everything was as described.

We just spent the Christmas week in this amazing property! One reason I had chosen this place was because past reviews mentioned the owner had set up a Christmas tree and other holiday decorations - all true and decorations were lovely.The flat was spotless and spacious - huge rooms with high ceilings. Decor and furniture made it feel like a home. Other positive factors included: location was great - walking to Princes Street area as well as very close to the Botanical Gardens; lots of little pubs, shops and a large Tesco close by; kitchen was fully equipped and large; location was very quiet; the owner Kate was very attentive and we exchanged many e-mails; there was an information book provided with comprehensive facts about the flat as well as info about the area that was tremendously helpful. We travel quite a bit and have stayed in many VRBO's. This this property is now at the top of my "best" list. I would stop your search here and just book it!
Convenient, clean and comfortable. Walking distance to almost everything. Great restaurants as well.

The apartment is lovely, very spacious and well equipped, and the location is great. We ended up going out mostly in Bonnington locally. Great bar very close to the apartment called Pickles - very busy and buzzy. Nice pubs and a good selection of restaurants in walking distance. A short walk to Princes Street. We had a great stay.

We were really impressed with the size of this rental- it was way bigger than we had expected it to be. Everything was extremely clean. We felt very comfortable staying in this area and it was located just a short walk to Old Town. There were a lot of tools in the kitchen to use. We had a great stay and would stay here again.

My family and I stayed in this beautiful property during the last phase of our 2 weeks in the UK. The property was HUGE and very comfortable for our family of 4. It is ~20 mins walk to get to the Royal Mile and an easy walk everywhere. We loved the neighborhood feel that allows us to get away from the crowds. Would recommend this spot to anyone staying in Edinburgh.

We had a wonderful stay at the flat at 1 Bellevue Terrace. The pictures don’t do the flat justice. It is very comfortable, clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. The location was easy to hop on buses and close to restaurants and grocery stores. We loved staying there and look forward to staying again in the future.

Best apartment in Edinburgh we have stayed in by far...very convenient location within walking distance to the centre, comfortable, exceptionally well appointed, child/family friendly (helpful to be on the ground floor with own entrance if you have luggage). It was above our expectation and just lovely. I felt I was home. I wish we could have stayed for longer!

The flat is beautiful! A wonderful two bedroom flat with more than enough room. We walked everywhere from the flat with ease and loved that it was close to grocery as well. Could not recommend it enough!!! Kate was a wonderful host as well and very communicative.
