Great Stay in Morningside

Great flat just outside downtown Edinburgh. Very convenient to the central city via the bus which is within walking distance. Quiet neighborhood with everything you could need also within walking distance. Steven was a great host. Would certainly look at renting again if we were back in Edinburgh.

Lovely place to stay

After a warm welcome by Reta, we (parents & 2 teenage girls) had a lovely stay in this cosy, well-equipped and clean appartment. It is an ideal place to relax after a visit to the busy center of Edinburgh. It is situated just outside the center in a very safe and quiet area. There are plenty of small shops, pubs and restaurants in the neighbourhood and a large supermarket (Waitrose) around the corner with fresh bread in the morning. Visiting the center of Edinburgh can easily be done by bus (busstop is a 5 minutes walk away, waiting time at most 10 minutes). In short: great place to stay!

A wonderful aprtment in lovely Morningside

We love Morningside and with the efficient and frequent city buses, all of Edinburgh is virtually at your doorstep. Also, it is so convenient to have the Waitrose grocery store just a block away and, of course, Canny Man's pub nearby. John, Reta and Steven are all very friendly and accommodating and helpful as landlords. There was a small building problem we merely mentioned during our stay and they were right on top of it! This is a really nice apartment with comfortable accommodations - and being on the ground floor is a bonus. Highly recommended!

A very neat, clean place. Also very comfortable, and close to the city Centre.

We will be back in a few days to spend six more days here. It is a wonderful apartment, and a great area. If we are ever back in Scotland, this is where we will stay. We do have one suggestion: we were ten minutes late and received a parking ticket. The parking authority said the owners could apply for a certain number of free parking spots per year. We are not sure what would be involved, but it would save a lot of hassle. Other than that minor problem, this is a great place to stay. Thank you. Vern and Sheila. John and Pat

A modern and spacious apartment which is very well appointed. Large comfortable beds in both bedrooms. Felt like home from home. We were welcomed by the owner, who showed us around and helped with our queries. Minutes from local amenities including the bus stop for transport into the city centre. Would definately recommend this apartment

Perfect base for exploring Edinburgh

A lot of thought has gone into making this apartment the perfect place for a holiday in Edinburgh, from the high quality furnishings and decor, to the well-equipped kitchen and the thoughtful and informative information folder. The flat is in the ideal location; Morningside is an individual and distinctive neighbourhood, with lots of interesting independent shops, restaurants and bars. It's a leisurely walk into town, or a short inexpensive cab ride. There are also frequent buses along the main road. It's much better value, more comfortable and flexible than a hotel, and everything you need is a very short walk away. We really enjoyed spending a weekend here, and as regular visitors to Edinburgh, we are planning to return in the not-too-distant future.

Fringe Accomodation

Just a quick email to say what a treat it was to stay in your accomodation in Morningside. Great location near bus route, shops etc. The property was very inviting, clean and furnished to the highest standard. We particularly liked the quality of the sheets and towels! You have thought of lots of little things that make it a real home from home. John was so helpful on arrival even though we were later than planned - sorry again. We look forward to our next visit.

Great location and ideal apartment

We had a great stay in this apartment. We're a family of 4 with two young kids. The apartment matches the description, is very clean and has everything you need. Reta was very friendly and made sure we had everything, even supplying some toys to keep our 2 year old occupied! The location is ideal in a quiet street, with supermarkets, various interesting shops, cafes, restaurants and a cinema a few minutes walk. There are many regular buses to and from central Edinburgh and other areas around town. Its also relatively central so a pleasant 30 minute walk through Bruntsfield and down through "The Meadows" to the main tourist spots in Edinburgh such as the High Street and Castle etc.

Wonderful place in a wonderful city

We loved this flat. It was very clean and well equipped with just everything you can think of (even a dish washer). The Landloards are very friendly, uncomplicated and really hospitable. The flat has 2 sleeping rooms with double beds, a bath room, a kitchen and a living room with books, magazines and a TV etc. You can easily walk to the city centre of Edinburgh - or take one of the direct buses (its only a few stops to the most beautiful places of Edinburgh). The area itself is very pretty, clean and there is a big supermarket just a few steps from the house. For all those heading to Edinburgh, it could be the chance of staying at a lovely flat with really friendly landloards. A enjoyable citybreak!

Why they chose this property

We chose this apartment primarily for its location. Situated in the Morningside area of Edinburgh it has all the amenities close by that any self catering guest would need. Morningside is a vibrant area with many shops, bar, restaurants, theatre and cinema. The apartment is in a quiet street a few minutes walk from the main road that runs through Morningside. This is services by many buses that all pass through the city centre within 10 minutes. Alternatively guests can choose to stroll through the leafy streets and across the Meadows Park and into the Old Town area of Edinburgh. This takes around 30 minutes to walk. Many of our returning guests prefer to remain in the Morningside area for a few days of their stay and soak up the local atmosphere.
