Georgian Dreamer

Halfway between Edinburgh and Leith, this Georgian apartment is in a prime location to discover the city's best bits. The old town is just a twenty-minute walk from your doorstep. Although it's in a residential area, there's lots to do nearby, including the Playhouse Theatre and a handful of bars and shops. With plenty of natural light, colourful, comfy furnishings and a decent-sized kitchen, the home has everything you need for a short city break.

Home truths:
*There is free parking at the property, with a permit included in your stay
*Two of the bedrooms have adjustable sleeping arrangements – you can have either a double or two singles, just let the host know in advance
*One room has bunkbeds and is probably only suitable for kids
*There is a fold-out bed in the living room but, again, it’s probably more suited to kids
*The property is a twenty-minute walk to Edinburgh’s old town
*There is a regular bus service to Edinburgh and Leith – the stop is a few minutes walk away
*This is a ground-floor flat
*While only one is pictured, there are three bathrooms on this property
*The property is in a residential area, so it’s likely to be quiet
