Our little apartment is part of an Old Customs House which was converted many years ago. Our street is tucked behind Nicholson Street where many independent little shops, cafes and restaurants can be found. There is a Tesco express right on your doorstep for all you might need for a breakfast before heading out to explore of a quick supper on your return!
The architecture of the area is interesting and a walk around this diverse multi cultural area is a must

Arthur's Seat is an ancient volcano and is right on your door step! Robert Louis Stevenson described it as ' a hill for magnitude, a mountain in virtue of it's bold design' Great to climb to see the sunrise!
