Food Scene

Lovely Greek place with nice staff and European atmosphere. Very relaxed and slow paced kind of place. Really nice to sit outside on a sunny day. This place is off the radar and is a nice little secret.

Casual authentic Thai restaurant serving up delicious street food. Started as a small pop-up but now has a permanent spot. Very popular so you may have to wait but it is definitely worth it. Good value.

Currently Edinburgh's best restaurant in the local guide. The menu changes monthly based on their 'harvest' and diners all have the same 5 course meal of the freshest local ingredients. A must do place for foodies.

Casual restaurant serving up some of the best South Indian food in Edinburgh. Good value for money and BYOB which means take your own bottle of wine (they don't serve alcohol). Really delicious food.

Drinks & Nightlife

Nice cosy bar with really friendly staff. There is a cinema screen in the back room which shows classic films at 3pm each day. A small but popular place so it can be quite busy at weekends and some evenings.

Cool venue with great music. It isn't just jazz either, so check the listings or show up for a surprise. At the weekend it is a place to party with lots of dancing and fun music.

Parks & Nature

The iconic Arthur's seat is just a 10 minute walk from the flat, although it will take longer than that to get to the top. Great views from the top and a lovely place to take in some fresh Scottish air.

Beautiful gardens and glasshouses. Lovely all year round so makes a nice place for a picnic in summer or a beautiful winter walk. The glasshouses are a good place to warm up in the colder months. Please note it is only open during the day.

Sightseeing

Another Edinburgh icon is the Castle which can be seen from many points of the city. You can pay to go inside and view the exhibitions, which are fascinating. But the real charm is just catching sight of it as you walk around the city.

An historical village dating back to at least the 11th century. Just a short walk from the city centre, the Dean Village is situated on the Water of Leith and contains many stunning buildings. It is a fantastic route to the Modern Art and Dean Galleries nearby. You can also follow the Water of Leith for a nice peaceful riverside walk. There is a resident Heron and Otters have also been spotted in the waters!

A guided tour of a series of streets buried underneath Edinburgh's Old Town. The streets have been preserved in their original condition and are said to be haunted. We highly recommend this tour!

The most famous street in Edinburgh. It leads from the castle down to Holyrood Palace, passing many shops, cafes and restaurants on the way. There are often street performers here, especially during the Fringe Festival. If you have time, take a walk down the narrow side streets leading from the Royal Mile. There are lots of beautiful surprises hidden away.

This is a really fun way to spend a few hours. There are several floors filled with optical illusions and they are all interactive. There are also beautiful views from the roof. Great for a rainy day especially.
