Tucked away down a quiet mews street in Stockbridge, this architecturally unique converted coach house is the perfect place to begin your getaway in the Scottish capital. It's a peaceful spot that's still within walking distance of the city centre – we think you'll fall in love with Edinburgh's rugged charm in no time at all.

From the flagstone floors in the kitchen to the original stove in the bedroom, this home is bursting with traditional details to admire. However, there are also plenty of modern comforts – you'll love cooking up your favourite dishes in the well-equipped kitchen using fresh local ingredients. And, when it's time to relax, you can take a soak in the bath before slipping into the crisp white sheets.

You'll also have access to private river gardens nearby at the end of the mews lane, where you can relax on sunny days or wander down the river into bustling Stockbridge. Beautiful Dean Village, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an unspoilt pocket of the city with ancient buildings and cobbled streets, just a ten-minute walk away. And, a twenty-five-minute walk will bring you through the New Town to the iconic castle and the Royal Mile.
