The living space extends providing a cosy living room open plan with both the kitchen and dining area. The wood burner will always be a warm welcome after a day out exploring.
The kitchen has everything you'll need to prepare, cook and enjoy any homely meals you wish, however given the location within Edinburgh and that you'll not be far from restaurants and takeaways, you may find yourself enjoying these given the wide range of cuisines available.
