The Reveal

Near LGBTQ+ SceneCozyGreat for Fitness LoversInsta-WorthyRelaxingCentral location

Stylish, quality, spacious, bright & colourful flat with amazing views. 25 min bus to city centre.

You'd have sole access to my fully equipped home (2nd floor). Perfect for holidays/staycations, with family & friends or remote work (2 desks + fibre broadband 200Mbps).

Portobello is a thriving part of Edinburgh - abundant hospitality, leisure, retail & community

As a PRIVATE HOME, it is not a serviced apartment or hotel. You'll get far more for your money - but it's a different offer & experience. Please don't expect a reception service at 6am!

My flat is a luxurious and unique home - ideal base for getting out into the city or the thriving local residential area, or for staying in and relaxing - or recovering from your excursions!

These are the reasons why people choose my home initially, and then come back again:

1. Light, stylish, comfortable, quality furnishings - with lots of real plants!

2. Comfortable beds

3. Amazing views - in all directions & therefore great light & weather watching

4. Great location - easily accessible to/from the city by public transport, and to get to from the airport or city by-pass

5. In a thriving local neighbourhood - lots of independent shops, retail, leisure and hospitality on the doorstep

6. 100 meters from the beach & 2km flat promenade! Walk and wild swim in the Scottish sea, anyone?

7. Remote work possible. High-speed wireless broadband throughout the house. 2 workstations.

8. Quiet building, surrounded by private ornamental grounds and no passing traffic.

9. Free and generous on-street parking.

10. Fully equipped kitchen provides all the basics for full-on cooking or just having a cup of good tea/coffee.

11. Spacious comfortable lounge & dining area for 4 people.

12. Flexibility possible: Up to 2 additional overnight guests can stay (on deluxe inflatable mattresses in the living room). £50 per person per night.

Late exit possible. £40 extends your stay until 2pm. Useful if you're leaving late or need to get some work done before you travel...

13. Serene space and yoga mat to improve your health & wellbeing.

14. Home cinema available. No TV. There is a projector and screen with HDMI cable. You need to bring your laptop.

15. Read my books, or play board games and entertain your friends here.

16. Super clean. Always! :0)

17. Long-term host & original 'house sharing' concept. This is my home and I am willing to share it. It takes trust in other humans... You are not adding to the local housing crisis. And you are helping me travel too.

18. Private/sole access - I will vacate the property during your stay.

19. Local guides and top tips and ideas provided by me - or my friends from the area.

20. Personal hosting service - by me. As a long-standing Superhost, my aim is to make your visit comfortable, enjoyable & easy. I am responsive, provide comprehensive & clear information and share top tips from over 30 years of local knowledge.

I want you to enjoy your time in my home, and I'll do everything I can to help you enjoy your stay.

For the avoidance of doubt and misunderstanding about 'Modern'. My home is designed around the MID-CENTURY MODERN style. This is a period of architectural style and furnishing designs that are from the mid-1900s. It's a specific thing. My home has 'some old and unusual stuff' in it. It's not straight out of Ikea. I hope it's what you'll appreciate about it.

I've lived in Edinburgh since 1992 - so I know it pretty well! I’ve travelled far and wide for pleasure and purpose. Post Covid lockdowns, I bought a campervan and am now travelling & working remotely as I enjoy a wide variety of outdoor-based activities, especially climbing. I can tell you great things to see and do and places to eat in Edinburgh, all that don't cost the earth.
