About this property

JOIVY Calton Hill Idyllic cottage feel next 2 Princes St

Our beautiful period flat is on historic Calton Hill, in the Centre of Edinburgh.

A lovely location with a magical private garden. Waverley station, tram, shops, theatre, restaurants all within a 5 min walk. If you're flying into Edinburgh just get the airport link bus or tram into the town centre. The bus and tram stops are a few minutes walk from the house.

The space
A lovely sunny flat with a spacious lounge opening into a private garden with beautiful seating area. Cute and cozy double bedroom, fully equipped dining kitchen and newly refurbished bathroom. The living room has a traditional fireplace but this is not a working fire, due to the chimney not being open. Don't worry, you won't be cold, even during an Edinburgh winter, because the big cast iron radiators for the central heating system are very effective! The kitchen is fully equipped, including microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and large, funky retro fridge freezer.

Lots of restaurants, theatres etc are on your doorstep but if you fancy a night in there's a TV (32 inch) with all the Freeview channels. Internet access via Sky.

AMAZING place to stay in Edinburgh
This flat is simply the perfect base from which to explore Edinburgh. It's super clean and quiet (though the upstairs neighbor can be loud, bring earplugs), has all the amenities you need, the wee garden is beautiful (such a restful oasis in the midst of a bustling city!), and it's extremely conveniently located close to all the major sights, bus tours, shopping, parks... The only thing we'd suggest is that they provide an extra set of sheets and a duvet so you can use the pull out couch. There were only two of us but we wanted to sleep in separate beds and just had to use the throw blankets for the couch mattress. We also pulled it out of the couch and put it on the floor as it's super uncomfortable as a pull out bed)

Character apartment
Small and cosy apartment good for a couple. Great central location, easy for trains, trams and buses and all major attractions can be easily walked to. Remember though that Edinburgh is not entirely on the flat.
