Beschrijving van het huis dat wij aanbieden voor ruil
A bright, well equipped modern apartment in a quiet neighbourhood. Very central – only 10 to 20 minutes walk to all main tourist attractions in vibrant Edinburgh.
We have owned the apartment for nearly 20 year. We let out the apartment as a holiday let and also use it ourselves - it's our city bolthole!
The accommodation comprises of two generous double bedrooms, one with kingsize bed and one with twin beds. The king size bedroom is ensuite and there is an additional bathroom with full bath and shower. A bright spacious kitchen/diner/lounge looks out onto well maintained communal gardens and has everything you will need for a comfortable relaxing stay – flat screen tv, dvd player, hifi, radio, ipod dock as well as fully equipped kitchen with oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge and freezer.
Full instructions for all appliances can be found in a folder in the apartment.The apartment is accessed by a buzzer/securty system and is located on the first floor. In the apartment you will find lots of guides and maps to help you make the most of your stay in this wonderful city. There is also a contact telephone number in case of any emergency and of course you can always email us with any questions you have. Free parking is available for one car in the apartment block’s car park. The apartment is situated in a residential area so please be respectful of families and working residents in the apartments around you. This is nor a party apartment and we don't accept bookings from Hen or Stag parties. No pets and no smoking in the flat or stairwell.

.Although in a quiet neighbourhood the area is well served with 3 supermarkets on the doorstep as well as a wealth of shops, restaurants and takeaways nearby.
There is so much to see and do in Edinburgh it’s hard to know where to begin! You are only a short walk or bus ride away from all the main attractions – Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, Scottish Parliament, museum, art galleries etc and Princes Street with its shops and lovely gardens. For great shopping head to George Street and surrounding area which has a superb variety of designer shops and boutiques as well as a fantastic variety of pubs, restaurants and cafes to suit all tastes and budgets. Or for some peace and tranquility head to the famous Edinburgh Botanic Gardens, only 10 minutes walk or a short bus ride away. And of course Edinburgh is known as the Festival City as it hosts not only the famous International Festival and Fringe in every August but also many food, book, jazz and music festival along with the world famous Hogmanay Party every New Year.
For entertainment the Playhouse Theatre and Omni cinema complex are just a few minutes walk away. There are many, many more theatres, cinemas and clubs and bars with live entertainment on around the city so you are sure to find plenty to entertain you!Edinburgh has a brilliant transport system so leave the car behind! If you do have it leave it in the free car park and either walk, take the bus or ride the tram. Very easy to get around.

Wat we graag willen of wat juist niet...
We're interested in staying in New Zealand late December 2019 and January 2020. We're retired accountants and love travelling. We live in the Highlands of Scotland and have an apartment in Edinburgh which we use but also let out as holiday accomodation. We let out the Edinburgh apartment from Easter until October so swap usually only available outwith that period. All we ask is you leave the apartment the way you found it please.
