A mostly residential area made up of classic Edinburgh tenement flats, you’ll also find the super quaint Abbeyhill colonies here. The colonies are perhaps now best known for the annual Colony of Artists festival where locals turn their homes into mini exhibition spaces, opening them up to the general public each September. It’s not often you find an easily climbable extinct volcano (!) in the middle of a city (!!!) from your window (!!!!), but, well, welcome to Edinburgh and its iconic Arthur’s Seat. Set in the grounds of Holyrood Park, you’ll want to set aside most of a day to properly explore the city’s biggest green space, and its highest peak. As well as the lion-like Seat, the park also boasts the ruins of a 15th century chapel, three lochs and the impressive Salisbury Crags, accessed via the Radical Road. Plan your day wisely and you’ll have time for a pub lunch, a pint and a game of skittles at The Sheep Heid Inn. As well as sharing its name with the home of Hibernian football club, Easter Road is a great place to head for a coffee or quick bite. The fresh focaccia sandwiches from Polentoni are worth walking across town for. A few doors down you’ll find Australian-inspired coffee locale Little Fitzroy; with their expertly-made coffees, sandwiches, and well-stocked cake counter. Go the other way and you’ll find the ‘bakery and provisions’ outpost of Twelve Triangles where you can pick up some local produce. If you fancy a proper pint as well as some great food, the beer garden and taproom at The Bellfield Brewery is a no-brainer. The neighbouring Safari Lounge, with its kitsch animal print decor, pull a great pint too; their tacos, French fries with jungle sauce and mussel popcorn are all *chef kiss*. We kindly request that you read the house rules prior to booking and respect them during your stay. Parties or events of any kind will not be tolerated. Violation of this rule will result in eviction from the property and charges for any damages or additional cleaning required. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
