Pink Thistle

Housed in a beautifully preserved Georgian townhouse, this chic apartment in Edinburgh’s New Town will make you feel right at home. We love the contrast between the dark wood floors, sage-coloured walls and blush pink armchairs, creating a soft and intimate setting for a relaxing stay. Although a studio apartment, space is cleverly maximised here thanks to clever design details, like the wooden floor-to-ceiling beams that create a separation between the living and dining areas, and the cute kitchenette concealed within a stunning feature cabinet. After waking up and enjoying a soak under the tiled bathroom’s rainfall shower, head out for a stroll around Queen Street Gardens, just across the road. You’re also just a six-minute walk from shop-lined Princes Street, a twelve-minute walk from Edinburgh Castle and a fourteen-minute amble from Calton Hill with its panoramic views over the city.


Home truths:
*As this is a studio apartment, there's no real separation between the living and sleeping areas
*This home is located on the third floor of a building with no lift, so it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility or those bringing lots of luggage
*Unfortunately, there's no washing machine here
*A vacuum cleaner, iron and ironing board are located in a shared cupboard on the second floor of the building for the use of all residents
*Edinburgh Waverley train station is a twelve-minute walk away
