Audrey
A traditional Edinburgh cottage invites you to step back in time and enjoy an exceptional stay in this historic colonies area which is convenient to all of the city centre. Built in 1857 by artisans, our flat is warm, cosy and with views over individual Victorian gardens. It has everything you need for a relaxing time in a natural, human environment. This is a chance to step back in time and stay in a flatted cottage in one of the first buildings designed for workers with quality of life in mind. A home from home, this is Scottish hygge, a return to a healthy lifestyle within a strong community. The cottage's historic features are largely unaltered since it was constructed, but with design touches to accentuate comfort and relaxation. Enclosed within a leafy conservation area and with no traffic visible in any direction, it is an oasis of calm to return to after a busy day in the city.
I am a Scottish artist who has traveled widely. I now enjoy hosting guests from around the world to an authentic experience with the highest standard of accommodation and attention to detail.
Rosebank is located minutes from the Castle, the Old and New Towns, Princes Street Gardens, the airport tram, the financial district and the EICC.
