無料駐車場付きエジンバラシティアパートメント

The property was purchased by 3 generations of a family - mother and daughter Sue and Sam, and grandfather Les. We use the property to visit son Dave and his family.

Despite the fact we purchased the property when Les was 86, he played a very active role in getting the property ready.

Sue and Sam both live in Croxley Green in Hertfordshire. Sam and her husband John run their own business providing public sector research and consultancy. They have two young children. Sue is now retired (although is kept busy with childcare for her grandchildren!) but previously worked managing a programming team.

With family living in Edinburgh we found ourselves frequently coming up stay in B&Bs. We loved the city and wanted to visit more often, and also liked the idea of having somewhere we could have a living space we could all share.

This particular location appealed because we felt it was very important to have parking and the proximity to the town centre made it a very attractive place to be based. Guests frequently comment on the fact that it is a lovely quiet area, despite being so close to the city centre. There is a small children's play area near the Co-op which our children love to play in and we love being able to open the patio doors on a nice day (they do get them occasionally in Edinburgh!).

Although we often walk into the City centre the bus stop a few minutes walk away make it even easier to get around.

We bought the property knowing that we would want to let it out so we were careful to find somewhere that was located conveniently for town, had good parking and which was suitable for older generations and children alike. Although the building has a lift, the ground floor access is particularly helpful and meant we got the small patio area.

We have tried to furnish and equip it so that it could be a great home away from home for us, without it being too personalised. We have stayed in many B&Bs and flats around Edinburgh so we felt we had a good idea of what works and what doesn't.
