Number 55 Cumberland Street is a spacious 1st floor Georgian flat situated in a quiet street in Edinburgh's New Town.  It has been recently completely and sympathetically refurbished to provide elegant accommodation of the highest standard, which is both welcoming and comfortable.  A bright spacious sitting/dining room, with original cornicing, marble fireplace, leather sofas and wooden floors, is the perfect room for relaxing or socialising, whilst the kitchen/diner is fully equipped with top of the range appliances and enjoys a sunny south facing aspect overlooking the quaint mews houses of the lane behind.  Two delightful bedrooms, again bright and airy, are tastefully presented and provide a restful retreat after a day of enjoying the sights and sounds of Edinburgh.

Edinburgh is a wonderful vibrant city with lots to offer the visitor.  With Edinburgh Castle, Hollyrood Palace and the medieval jumble of the Old Town separated by Princes Street Gardens from the elegant terraces and crescents of the Georgian New town, it is easy to see why Edinburgh has been designated a World Heritage Site.  Host to the famous Edinburgh Festival during the month of August, Edinburgh also has much to offer the culture lover all year round with an outstanding array of galleries, museums, theatres and music venues, whilst others may prefer to sample the outstanding night life and world class restaurants.  Shopping ranges from Harvey Nichols and designer boutiques to second hand bookshops and antique shops, or perhaps visitors may enjoy a romantic stroll round the Botanic Gardens or along the Water of Leith down to the waterfront at Leith.  All this and more is within a short walk or bus journey from this wonderful apartment and yet its peaceful location belies its city centre setting in one of Europe’s top cities.
