Cadell House Apt - Royal Mile

Great Location to see Edinburgh We had a good time at Cadell house. The owners were excellent communicators and helped with any questions we had immediately. The house is in a superb location - easy walking distance to all major sites in Edinburgh. Just far enough away as not to be too noisy. The apartment is large for a city flat and four of us were comfortable there.

House was easily located and clean upon arrival. Location was fabulous for sightseeing and shopping. We managed to trip a circuit breaker and owners were prompt to respond and all was made well. Communication before we even arrived was very good with all my questions answered and my trepidation put to rest. I'm a born worry-wart. Would recommend this property whole heartedly. 😃

Beautiful apartment at an excellent location This apartment is located on Canongate and the Panmure Close. You can't beat the location for the reasons below: 1. Adam Smith lived next door (now a fully renovated business school named after him) during his last years. He was buried next door in the Canongate Kirk. Like capitalism or not, he was an intellectual giant and we paid a visit to his burial place. 2. Aside from Adam Smith, the Canongate Kirk graveyard itself is beautiful and worth a visit. I saw many local residents walking their dogs there. 3. Between the Canongate Kirk and the apartment lies the Dunbar's Close Garden, which was carefully designed to showcase historical gardening. It is free to visit. 4. There are two nice little restaurants within 50 meters of the apartment: Clarinda's Tearoom and Oink Canongate. 5. The apartment is 5-minute walk away from the Holyrood Palace and the Scottish Parliament. In other words, it is relatively far away from the Edinburgh Castle, which I think is a plus because it is less noisy here. Unlike the Edinburgh Castle which requires a ticket, the Scottish Parliament is free to visit Monday-Saturday. There is a cafe inside so you can actually eat there if you don't want to wait for a table at the Clarinda's Tearoom or the Oink. 6. It's close to Arthur's Seat and the Salisbury Crags, which I highly recommend. I climbed twice. I want to write more, but running out of words limit, so I'll just say the apartment itself was perfect for my family of four (with two kids).

The location of this property is amazing! Right on the Royal Mile, but tucked back in a close that feels private and cozy. Such a convenience to have a kitchen and a washing machine during our holiday. We found the space to be clean and comfortable for our trip. Convenient to everything and extremely walkable. We rented a car for our entire trip around Scotland, but wished we did not have it for the time we were in Edinburgh. It’s just not needed and paying for parking felt wasteful. Definitely recommend this property. Our only recommendation for improvement is that it would have been nice if the backyard was accessible to use the clothesline for drying.

Historic Cadel house is right in the historic old town and on the Hop On, Hop Off bus route. Very comfortable accommodation in an old building. Would recommend.

I loved the apartment and all of the amenities were great and easy to use. The only issue that we had was that the neighbours got a little loud at night. Otherwise, the apartment was lovely and allowed us a restful repose after exploring the city.
