Holiday Rental Description

Lose yourself to Old Town's maze of ancient, cobbled streets with a stay at this immaculate, serviced apartment.

For a local wander, the historic Grassmarket is a great place to start (five minute on foot) with a whiskey-tasting session or rummage about its vintage boutiques. Or call in on your neighbours at The National Museum, it's just across the street. When it's time for a change of scene, take a ten-minute stroll down to the heart of Princes Street in Edinburgh's centre –⁠ where all the other must-see sights await.

Back at the apartment, we love how carefully considered the space feels with mid-century interiors and statement lighting. And though this is studio living, we think it's beautifully formed.

Curl up on the cosy sofa and take a flick through the apartment's copy of the Haarkon Adventures guide for some travel-inspo, or crash out with some Netflix. Then test out the kitchen, where you'll find everything you need to whip up a bite to eat. And when it's finally time to lay your head, you'll be surprised how blissfully quiet this home is –⁠ facing away from the bustle of the streets with just the view of a nearby church as your companion.
