New Town Apartment | Gorgeous, 5 star-rated Georgian Home in the Heart of Edinburgh

4 Bedroom Apartment in New Town, Edinburgh

Our stunning and much-loved second home is the perfect base from which to enjoy and explore Edinburgh. Built in 1805, it has consistent five-star reviews from more than 50 consecutive bookings, and has recently been further upgraded to an even higher standard. This stunning apartment is very spacious, with high ceilings, original features, and fabulous furniture. The Forbes' Residence is a luxurious home rather than a 'holiday rental'.
Located in the ‘East Village’ of the our beautiful city, it is quiet but just around the corner from Broughton Street which buzzes with coffee shops, restaurants and quaint shops. Walk up Dublin Street and you will be in St Andrews Square and the city centre within 10 minutes. Or stroll the other way through Stockbridge and to the beautiful Botanical Gardens. A wealth of historical sites, fabulous restaurants, festivals, shops and entertainment are on your doorstep. And yet you can be in Scotland's beautiful countryside or playing a world class golf course in less than an hour.
The Forbes' Residence accommodates up to eight people in four bedrooms, with two bathrooms, a stunning drawing room, a 'live in' kitchen and lovely views over the street and gardens. It has a stylish, contemporary Scottish theme, original stripped Canadian wooden floors in the reception rooms with elegant carpeting in the bedrooms, detailed cornicing, a flagstone kitchen and beautiful fireplaces. A fine example of Georgian architecture at its very best with a sense of history pouring out of every nook and cranny, this 19th century building was previously home to Scottish artist Anne Redpath.
Our family love to stay here - it is full of happy memories - and we rent it out to discerning visitors for a limited number of weeks each year. We look forward to welcoming you to our 'home from home' in beautiful Edinburgh!

Summary: We had a fantastic stay at this flat! The location was perfect for exploring the city—just a short walk to major attractions, vibrant bars, great restaurants and excellent shopping. The space itself is beautiful, warm and comfortable. It felt like we were being welcomed into a friend’s home rather than a rented property. There were a couple of minor issues during our stay, but Rosanna was incredibly responsive and had everything sorted out quickly. The flat truly made our time in Edinburgh more memorable, and we’d definitely stay here again!

Summary: The flat was everything we hoped it would be. Lots of room, wonderful kitchen and beautiful living room to gather at the end of a busy day. The location was fantastic with lots of local restaurants and grocery stores, as well as close to the bus and train stations. Rosanna, who greeted us and patiently answered our questions as they came up over the few days we were there, was delightful. Hope to return another year. Thanks to Hannah for sharing her wonderful apartment with us,
