The Gilderoy

The Gilderoy: Edinburgh and the Lothians

This is a genuinely special home, with an abundance of character and sophistication, with everything finished to a high quality. The location was equally impressive, found on a quiet cobbled street just off a main busy road, within walking distance of the city centre. While the striking master bedroom came close, the living room was our favourite room in the home. It feels almost like an old school drawing room, but with an added comfort factor. There's also great attention to detail, such as the drawer of hot water bottles in the kitchen for those rainy Scottish evenings.

Home truths:
* There's no lift in the building so you will need to climb some stairs to reach the home on the first floor
* The master bedroom has an en-suite, but the other three guests will share a bathroom
* The fireplaces are just decorative
*The tram stop taking you to the airport is a short four minute walk from the flat
