Description

Will you be visiting, performing or working at the
Fringe Festival?
International Festival?
Book Festival?
Film Festival?
Or visiting Edinburgh University or one of the hospitals in summer?

If so, a quiet haven yet within easy access of many venues could be a perfect temporary home for you. I'm looking to let my guest room to a quiet non-smoker during August.

You'd mostly have your own bathroom (shower over the tub, not ensuite), unless I have a friend staying for a few days. My home is a peaceful and spacious Victorian flat in a leafy residential area. Within walking distance are the following large venues:
Summerhall
Queen's Hall
King's Hall
Festival Theatre
Pleasance
Surgeon's Hall
George Square
Bristo Square

Easy bus access to the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary, Bioquarter, bus or walk to the Lauriston Place medical buildings including the Eye Pavillion.

There are many bus routes nearby, 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 please, no overnight guests. Happy to video chat and give a guided tour of the flat online and I'd like proof of ID please and payment on arrival.

Sorry: no couples or pets, and there's no garden access. Ideally I'd like to find someone who wants to rent the room for the whole month.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy your visit to Edinburgh wherever you choose to stay.
