Just straddling the border of Broughton and Leith, this home is perfectly located between two neighbourhoods full of trendy restaurants, traditional pubs, and plenty of independent shops. A twenty-minute walk from the heart of the old city, Edinburgh Castle, the architecture of this area is distinctly New Town. In this striking row of Georgian buildings, a mint-green door stands out from the dark stonework, beckoning you inside. The theme is pure luxury and opulence. Thick, regal red curtains, ornate plaster cornicing, and a wood-burning stove bring warmth into the vast lounge. A trio of original sash windows usher natural light into the bright dining space, where you can sip wine until the private chef arrives – courtesy of your host. Traditional elements meet modern charm in this gorgeous home, which echoes the local area quite well. This part of Edinburgh city centre’s east end is a lively area of bars, clubs, a thriving LGBTQ+ scene...
Located on a typically quaint street in Edinburgh's New Town, this apartment is in a great location, only a short walk away from the sights of Old Town, the Scottish National Portrait Gallery and a huge range of cafes and shops to explore in the local area. The interior of this home feels homely and relaxed, sporting an earthy colour palette and high-quality soft furnishings. The mix of Georgian features and rustic vibes — tartan throws will never not be cosy in our eyes — work well with the natural light that pours in from the large windows and creates a great sense of space. The cherry on the cake is the spacious and dazzlingly white bathrooms, complete with a free-standing bathtub that's just the ticket for a long, restorative soak. *There's no elevator to reach this home on the second floor – those with limited mobility or heavy suitcases take note*The third bedroom has two single beds and would be best suited to children*You won't...

Up this far north, it’s untamed Scottish Highlands at its finest. This stone cottage blends in perfectly with the wild countryside around it and there’s a lockable shed to store bikes, kayaks and outdoor adventure equipment so you can make the most of the lochs, rivers and woodlands on your doorstep. The town of Forres is a ten-minute drive away when you need to stock up. The private garden looks out over the rolling hills of the estate this home is set in, which has been owned by the same family since 1738. Inside, you’ll find the perfect blend of rustic cottage charm and modern convenience. The wood-burning stove set in the old hearth is pure tradition, while the kitchen has every appliance and crockery you need for self-catering. If the weather is fine, choose to dine outside on the patio. A world away from the city, the only traffic you’ll get here is the odd pine marten or roe deer passing through the orchard. *It is just over a m...
