Description

Our flat is part of an 18th century listed tenement building in the old port town of Leith (now part of Edinburgh) and is named the Waterloo Buildings, as it was built in 1815, the year of the famous victory. It has all the original fireplaces and plasterwork - we have endeavoured to be sympathetic to our environment when remodelling the space and have made the most of the quirky corners and archways.
We are now steps away from the tramline stop The Shore! This gives us incredible access to both central railway stations and the airport.

Your bedroom is a pleasant, spacious room with a very comfy king size bed, a desk, chair, there is also a set of drawers, a little wardrobe for hanging your clothes and sidetable. We have an electric piano in this room - feel free to play! There are working shutters and double curtains.
This room also faces a main street and can get a bit noisy with all the pubs, restaurants and the dings from the tram stop outside the windows! Ear plugs advised.
You will share the bathroom and kitchen with us.
We do have a wee calico rescue cat called Callie, who can be a bit shy but also very nosy. We may ask you to feed and water her if we are away when you're here.
We would prefer someone who does not work from home.
We are an older couple where me Catherine, stills works (I am the chef at St Mary's Music School) and Angelo is retired. We are very friendly and love sharing our space with guests - we love learning about different lifestyles and other cultures.
Angelo is of Italian descent and proudly identifies as an Italian Scot, I am Canadian-born, but have lived in Edinburgh most of my life - we have a lot of local knowledge!
We are also happy to rent out our other spare room on a short-term basis at £60/night.
