Situated in Edinburgh's charming New Town, just a hop, skip and a jump away from Princes Street, this Georgian apartment is absolutely breathtaking. If you're anything like us, you'll be swooning over the sky-high ceilings, enormous sash windows and oodles of period features. When married with the bright living spaces and contemporary touches like the BOSE Bluetooth mini sound system, Miele appliances and underfloor heating, this whole place is a showstopper. Just picture yourself sprawled out on the velvet sofa in front of the crackling fire, a glass of scotch in hand. Come dinnertime, pad over to the chef's-worthy kitchen and rustle up a delicious, hearty spread to share around the large oak table – alongside a bottle of Scotland's finest whiskey, of course. After supper, unwind with an engrossing book from the host's small library, play a game of backgammon around the coffee table or enjoy a soak in the lavish bathtub before ...
Six minutes from the vast greenery of Holyrood Park, this deluxe studio feels like a world away from local sights such as the ancient volcano of Arthur’s Seat. On a hill with traditional stone buildings, plus an array of tea rooms, shops, and pubs, this modern flat shows another side to the city. With industrial decor throughout, it’s an incredibly stylish place to pour a tumbler of whisky and settle down. We love how black metal features like the coffee table, lighting, and window frames, contrast plush furnishings like the blue velvet sofa. As it’s a cosy studio, there are fantastic space-saving ideas like a foldaway kitchenette. And with mid-century furnishings and abstract art, it's a trendy mix which has a warehouse vibe overall – something very different to what you’ll find outside. The Queen’s Gallery, at her royal residence of Holyrood, is just a five-minute walk away. Book yourself in to see paintings from the old masters, then...

Towards the east end of Edinburgh’s city centre, the architecture style starts to move away from the gothic spires of the Old Town. This home certainly isn’t far from historic landmarks, about half a mile from iconic views on Calton Hill as well as theatrical scenes at the Edinburgh Playhouse, but its character is distinctly more modern. Set in a quiet lane that's surprisingly close to the bustling restaurants and bars of London Road and Elm Row, this three-storey townhouse appears more like a cottage from the outside. Honey-coloured stonework and a cobbled street out front make this quaint, mews-like street feel more traditional than what you’ll find inside. Its layout is really quite special. At the heart of the home on the first floor, which you’ll ascend via wooden spiral staircase, we love the Scandinavian minimalist look. Huge skylights and high ceilings stretch all the way up to the mezzanine bedroom, with sloped w...
