Peaceful room - short-term

** Available Jan 2026 to end of April 2026 only as my previous student lodger is coming back in May 2026**

Looking to let my guest room to a quiet, non-smoker, ideally a visiting postgraduate student, academic or health professional.

You'd mostly have your own bathroom (shower over the tub), unless I have a friend staying for a few days. My home is a peaceful and spacious Victorian flat in a leafy residential area. There's lots of bus routes nearby to get you into town or out to the Bioquarter, Royal Infirmary. Many Edinburgh University departments are within walking distance - George Square, King's Buildings.

There's several small supermarkets, plus a shopping centre at Cameron Toll (large Sainsbury and Aldi supermarkets) again all in walking distance. The Commonwealth Pool/Leisure Centre and Arthur's Seat/Holyrood Park are also nearby.

I work in the National Health Service and am interested in theatre and art. A quiet home is important for me and also out of respect for my neighbours - it's definitely not a party flat and I wouldn't expect you to have an overnight guest without checking with me first.

I'd like something to explain that you need just a short term let as I'm not looking to offer a long-term flat-share. Sorry: no couples or pets, and there's no garden access. Thank you for reading.
