We stayed at the Garden Flat to celebrate our 20th anniversary and we are so glad that we did. Let’s start off with location. Located in New Town just north of the park it’s in a quiet, residential area which is great for relaxing after a busy day of sightseeing. It is, however, perfectly located within a 1-2 minute walk is a supermarket, 2 coffee shops, 2 restaurants and a great wine bar! St. Andrew’s square is a 10 minute walk and it’s about a 15 minute walk to the Royal Mile where we also picked up our bus tours.
As for the flat itself, modern, warm and comfortable. The bed is super comfy and the showers have great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Plenty of closet space as well. The living room/kitchen/dining room is great and they have plenty of USB outlets for your charging needs. One awesome bonus is the garden patio. We were busy most days with tourist stuff but managed to spend some time outside. It is so nice to have this place to escape to after a crazy day of tourist stuff.
Scott is super friendly and very helpful. There are plenty of instructions for the place which is very helpful coming in from another country (US).
Thanks for the great stay. We will be staying here the next time we come to Edinburgh!

Lovely flat with high-end furnishing, comfortable beds, plush pillows and a nice outside sitting area. 4 adults stayed for 2 nights and were very comfortable. We spent over 2 weeks in Scotland and the UK staying in a mix of 5 star hotels and home rentals; this one did not disappoint. They provided premium pots and pans, utensils, soaps and shampoos and coffees/teas. The washer and dryer worked well (the dryer takes awhile to properly dry but that seemed to be the norm in the UK). There is a parking spot that can be purchased for an additional cost that is a few blocks from the flat as street parking in front of the flat is for permits only. It's about a 5 min walk to the parking garage, which wasn't an issue for us, just something to be aware of. There can be an issue with blowing fuses when certain lights are on but there were clear instructions on how to reset the breaker. We had to stand on a chair to reset the breaker so if we had to find fault with this place it would be we wished they provided a small step ladder. This is a great place that will not disappoint! Thank you for opening your lovely place to us, we wish all rentals were this nice and well furnished!

We loved the Garden Flat in New Town! The space was modern, well appointed and clean. Yoga was done in the private, spacious garden. The location was excellent and very walkable to pubs and all of the best things to do in Edinburgh. Highly recommend!

The apartment is beautifully appointed and well equipped. Everywhere was spotlessly clean when we arrived and the garden was such a bonus as we had good weather during our stay. Communication with the owner was excellent and all instructions very clear and helpful. We thoroughly recommend this lovely garden Flat.

In this case, the photos do reflect reality. The flat is beautifully appointed and well maintained. The neighbourhood is safe, quiet and walkable. All the major attractions, not to mention restaurants and stores, are within reasonable walking distance. Two grocery stores are just a few minutes' walk from the flat. The owners were helpful and responsive. Booking and check-in were effortless. I should add that the apartment also includes a safe they guests can use. We highly recommend this property and would return,

We were so delighted to be able to stay in this absolutely beautiful apartment in the historical "new town" of Edinburgh. The apartment looks exactly like the photos. Spotless clean and very cozy. Scott is very responsive and answered my messages almost instantly. The secured parking place is very useful. We would love to come back again.
5.0
What a great property. A short walk from the Royal Mile, shopping, and food. More than enough room for our family of 3.
Great communication with the host before and during our stay.
The umbrellas were a nice, and very needed, touch.
We would definitely stay here again.

Our family including two young adult daughters (18 and 21) traveled to Edinburgh from 6/27 to 6/30 and were extremely pleased with choosing the Garden flat in New Town. Here are the reasons we chose the flat:
- two beds and baths, one king bed room can be converted to two twins (my girls appreciated it)
- modern, clean lines and a nice area with two couches and space to relax
- beautiful outdoor space
- washer and dryer
- easily accessible to public transport (quick walk from the tram)
Reasons we loved the property:
- The ability to drop our luggage early with the housekeeper and a safe area to leave it
- Laundry detergent, toiletries were provided (full size washer was nice for mid point of our trip)
- Instructions provided by the owner were well done, except we were a bit confused on where to take the trash
- safe provided for valuables
- many brochures/books/cards for local nearby restaurants
- close to grocery (one on each end of the street) and restaurants (we especially liked walking to the West End)
- easy walk to the tourist section and train station (spent a day in Glasgow)
We had a really nice night with take out Cantonese from down the street and a visit to Wally Dug pub while we waited for our food. Felt like a local and have already been asked by our fellow European travelers about where we stayed in Scotland.
- super easy to take the tram all the way to/from the airport

Our five week stay at the Garden Flat was great! The Flat was very stylish, roomy, and had everything we needed for our long stay. The best feature is the wall of windows in the great room that lets in lots of light into the Flat, and connects to a lovely patio. Our hosts, Scott and Marion, provided a detailed booklet on the Flat, nearby restaurants and attractions, public transportation etc. Being nearby, they quickly responded to any questions we had. We also loved the location, outside the major tourist areas but all easily walked to. Highly recommended.

Everything was as promised by Scott. Flat was spacious with all the mod cons and creature comforts. A great place to relax after exploring the city. Scott our host went out of his way to ensure we had a great experience even acting as postman when we left train tickets behind... thanks again 👌.
Have no hesitation in booking this trendy and comfortable flat.

Perfect flat in a quite neighborhood with easy access to explore all that Edinburgh has to offer plus easy walking to many yummy restaurants! All thoughtful essentials and details of the space were exceptional. Loved the layout of the great room to relax after a long day of sightseeing. Scott was excellent with communications before our stay and during. Thank you and we hope to return again for a longer visit!

This place exceeded our expectations in every way. The building itself was historic but the interior had been nicely remodeled. Beautiful courtyard was a plus. It was fully equipped but minimally furnished and very clean, so it was perfect for someone like my wife who has asthma. Fireplace was a wonderful feature for cold January nights.Location was ideal: we were able to walk to very single corner of central Edinburgh. We also had very short walks to fabulous neighborhood restaurants.Host was extremely friendly and accommodating. Our visit to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary was perfect!

Second stay this year, will not be the last. Scott's flat in New Town is wonderful, everything is top quality, no expense has been spared. Beds very comfy, showers superb, lots of space for 4 adults, lounge/diner/kitchen is very sapcious and extremely comfortable, you also have a huge outside terrace garden, with outside seating and even a garden log burner. Scott is super helpful in every single way, he provides so much info for the whole area, which is stunning, full of great bars/cafes and restuarants, and only a short walk up into the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Just a 10 min walk from Waverley train station make this the ideal place for a stay in this beautiful city. We were able to access early, and stay late on departure, which perfectly fit our train times. Just go ahead and book, there surely cannot be anywhere nicer in Edinburgh to stay!

From our initial communication to the departure of our stay, we were delighted by the owners and the property. The flat was spotless and well stocked, everything we needed and more. We were able to barbecue one evening rather than going out which is a fond memory. The added touches to flat were nothing short of fantastic. Thank you for sharing your flat with us. We wouldn’t look elsewhere if we were to visit again.

Absolutely perfect
The flat was perfect for 2 couples (ourselves and our daughter and son-in-law), spacious and extremely well-equipped. We had breakfast and dinner in every day of our 4-night stay, even grilling on the patio one evening. The location is perfect--we walked everywhere, including to the train station with our bags.
Scott was prompt and responsive to all our questions during the rental process, and the "Welcome Book" was thorough and informative.
We left wishing we could stay longer.
