★LOCATION★
This Stockbridge location is enviable- the wide road has no through traffic, yet within a few minutes walk to the restaurants, cafes and bakeries of Stockbridge. The local co-op convenience store is just around the corner, luckily next to Fortitude coffee who incidentally make the best coffee in Edinburgh in our opinion! Wide quiet street perfect for taxis and uber, the area also has a great bus service including directly up to Princes Street and Old Town (if you don`t fancy the 15-20 minute walk through one of the prettiest city centres in the world!). When we lived in the flat we`d often get a short Taxi out to the festival or old town if we were in a hurry, but nearly always walk home as the down-hill stroll is just beautiful.
Note- This is a prime central location suitable for walking, taxis and buses- there are pay bays but no easy way to park for longer periods of time. However the permit parking bays and single-yellow-lines are FREE to park after 5.30pm and all weekend. So if you`re hiring a car this can be handy.
