Our cosy yet cool Hart Street home in East New Town.

One of our newest homes, Hart Street (sleeps 4)  is a cracking two bedroom main door apartment nestled just behind fabulous Broughton Street. It blends stylish living with a cosy and cocooning vibe. The star of the show is the open plan living space with its dark blue panelling. Doors lead to the private garden area which in turn leads to a much larger shared garden – an absolute bonus in such a central location and perfect for your four legged friends too.

Eildon Street (sleeps 4) is located off Inverleith Row. This lovely two double bedroom main door home sleeping four has the Warriston Playing Fields opposite and The Water of Leith is nearby too. Find out more about staying at Eildon Street here.

Montpelier Park (sleeps 4) is located in Bruntsfield. For dog walks Bruntsfield Links and The Meadows are on the doorstep, so this is a great location for dogs and their owners. Bruntsfield is a fabulous neighbourhood and so there are so many wonderful independent and excellent businesses here. You’ll find great local food shops, eateries, boutiques, cafes and bars. This home from home was refurbished in 2019 to high standards and it’s very well furnished and equipped. It has the cutest cabin bed in Edinburgh too, just no doggies in there please!

We hope that you’ve found the perfect dog friendly apartment for your stay in Edinburgh. Read our blog on great Edinburgh dog friendly eateries here as well as great dog friendly pubs where you can enjoy a pint with your dog by your side. And on a cold winter’s night, what could be better than that!

Dogs are always welcome to stay with owners who are going to be taking their dogs with them when they go out but we’re afraid we can’t accept dogs who are going to be regularly left at home whilst the owners, for example go to work, as our experience is that damage is caused in this scenario. An additional £30/week charge is made for each dog and a larger damage deposit will be taken to cover any breakages/damages or extra cleaning which is required.
