About the location (Calton Hill, Edinburgh)
Great for major Festival events. - nearby venues include; the Assembly Rooms, Playhouse, City Arts Centre, Stand Comedy Club with many others in pubs and local halls nearby.
Most of the rest of the Festival is but a 'hop, skip and jump' over the North bridge to the High Street. Other landmarks include;
The world famous Calton Hill with it's spectacular views, St Andrews Square, Waterloo Place, the Balmoral Hotel, world class shopping in Princes Street and George Street, an Apple Store, Harvey Nicholls and the new St James Quarter Shopping Centre.
On the minor streets, you'll find a fair share of boutique shops, fun pubs and busy restaurants, particularly in nearby Broughton Street, Rose Street and Thistle Street.
There are excellent transport links from the nearby Waverley Train Station to all major cities, non-stop bus to Edinburgh Airport and trams, busses and taxis available in the surrounding streets.
Yet, despite being at the centre of the Festival city in the midst of this exciting time, a leafy peace and calm unexpectedly awaits the visitor who turns off busy Waterloo Place into this small and picturesque eighteenth century terrace.
Perhaps one of the finest all round views of any in the City: These include commanding views of the Old and New Towns, the UNESCO World Heritage site of Calton Hill itself and in distance vessels plying to and frow in the River Forth.
