Heated environmentally by an air source heat pump, this home is very well insulated to be warm and cosy in winter and cool in the summer. The star of the show is the new glazed extension forming the kitchen and dining area within the main living space. Here you'll find a sleek, well equipped kitchen and a dining table seating six comfortably. There's a Nespresso machine and everything you'll need to prepare meals at home, but being this central and with such an amazing choice of eateries on the doorstep, you may eat out a lot. There's a glazed door into the small private patio garden. In the attractive living space you'll find comfy seating, books and a smart TV.&

The master bedroom has a door into the fabulous Jack and Jill blue bathroom which has a shower over the bath and very attractive Moroccan tiles. This bathroom can also be accessed from the hallway. There's a lovely bedroom with an ensuite shower room at the back of the apartment and the third bedroom is smaller, but still has a comfy kingsize bed. There's a utility room off the hallway.&

Home Truths
This is a dog friendly home. Dogs are welcome 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 in case of any breakages/damages or extra cleaning which is required.
24 hour cool-off period: Providing you book more than fourteen days before the start of your stay, you can cancel your booking within 24 hours of making it and we will refund 100% of any charges.
Cancelling after the booking is confirmed: Once a confirmation of booking has been issued to you via email by Dickins, you are responsible for the total price detailed. If you need to cancel, Dickins will try to relet the period for you and if they are successful, you will be reimbursed with the value of the relet less a £75 + VAT charge. If they are not able to relet the period, you will be responsible for the full rental cost. It may be a good idea to make sure you have travel insurance which covers cancellation.

West End & Dean
Edinburgh’s West End and Dean is a popular, smart area. Running West from Queensferry Street to Magdala Crescent and North from Buckingham Terrace and Belgrave Crescent across the Dean Bridge to Shandwick Place in the South.
The Victorians created the West End and aimed to make it bigger and grander than the Georgian New Town. The streets are wide and the stone buildings enormous with huge high ceilings. The wide crescents often have private gardens in the middle and the area feels elegant and opulent. Princes Street can be easily reached on foot and Haymarket Station and the trams are close by too. William Street and Stafford Street are the West End’s most charming shopping streets and they are packed with exciting independent boutiques and some lovely restaurants and cafés. Around the corner magnificent Melville Street is home to various consulates and important companies. St Mary’s Cathedral rises above the West End and is perfect for lovers of angelic choral singing as they have a celebrated music school.
