Said to be the oldest pub in Edinburgh. Lovely traditional and very cosy pub with a skittles alley. Great Sunday lunches. Booking required for meals. Combine with a walk through Holyrood Park and a visit to Doctor Neil's Garden which is very close by.

Sightseeing

Do not leave Edinburgh without going up Calton Hill! Very close to the flat. 15 minute walk up through London Rd Gardens and then turn up the path next to the church. Wonderful views. Old Observatory, art gallery, cafe and various monuments. You can go up the Nelson Monument (£2?) Great spot ro watch sunrise and sunset (though can now get very busy at sunset! )

My favourite place in Edinburgh! So many paths and routes to explore. You can really get away from it all and feel like you're in the middle of nowhere. Or just follow the hordes to the top of Arthur's Seat.

Walk to the top of this extinct volcanoe for amazing views. Takes about one hour from the flat to get to the top, longer with kids. It's quite a steep hike in places. Highly recommened but it can get very busy, especially during good weather, so best to go early as possible.

Close to the flat. Despite the ongoing mess that is the tram works, a stroll down leith walk is a good antidote to the city centre. Slowly being gentrified there's a ton of reasonably priced eating and drinking opportunities to suit all tastes, traditional and hipster pubs, a few independent shops, an asian supermarket and a mediterranean supermarket
