Stayed in 1 BR flat in Sheriff Park, Leith neighborhood in Edinburgh, June 2013. Very handy to bus connection (#22 direct to Waverly) which we used on a daily basis -- purchased a 1-month bus pass (available just around the corner from Waverly: 1 block west then 1 block south) and found bus connections to be very convenient. Side trips we took were to Dunfermline, Glasgow, and Portobello, the last by local bus, an additional advantage. The flat in Leith is on the ground floor and although small it has everything we needed, as well as the spectacular view of Water of Leith and the bird life -- better than watching TV! Gillian, the contact, did not actually meet us on arrival but her husband John did, and he successfully checked us out on everything in the flat: central heating, redundant electric appliance activation, rubbish receptacles, and Gillian did check in with us in person later. She is very conscientious and helpful with questions we had. There's a Tesco just south of the flat, but I found the Sainburys a short distance north of the bus stop (to the first traffic light) then turning right, to be a nicer store and that's where we routinely shoppped for daily necessities. We pepared meals for probably half the time we were there, 3 wks, and had no problems with operation of kitchen appliances. This flat was just what we were looking for, and can't say enough about how helpful Janet at Edinburgh Flats was in her assistance with selection of this particular place -- location is a short bus ride to the city center yet has the advantage of a totally quiet location, not counting the music of the birds. Couldn't have been more pleased.
