The detail

This beautifully designed and furnished one-bedroom apartment in the heart of the vibrant city of Edinburgh is perfect for a couple looking for a stylish city break. Once used as a storeroom for gunpowder, it’s been transformed into a contemporary, open plan hideaway for two with the building’s original features proudly on display. The beautiful stonework and exposed beams overhead are softly lit by sophisticated lighting that creates a warm and welcoming glow. After a busy day exploring the city above, sit back and relax in your luxurious free-standing copper bathtub with a glass of bubbles and a good movie.

Step inside and you’ll find yourself in a luxurious living space, made cosy by the clever lighting, gently crackling wood-burning stove and warm colours of the soft furnishings. Sink back into the comfy velvet sofa while enjoying a glass of wine at the perfect temperature thanks to the wine fridge. There’s also underfloor heating, so no need to worry about what the weather is doing outside.

Enjoy a soak in the freestanding bath, set next to the wood burner and the 55-inch TV for indulgent movie nights in. Just around the corner, in its own nook, you’ll find the super-king size bed complete with sumptuous bedding and the ceiling above has been soundproofed, ensuring a peaceful night’s sleep. The ensuite shower room features a double shower and stylish tiles from the Edinburgh Tile Company.

In the mornings, whip up your favourite breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen or you can order from Di Giorgios Café located just above Canon Cave and have it delivered to your door. Pull up a stool to the kitchen island and tuck in or take your breakfast outside to the quiet private patio.

Canon Cave is located in the quiet Canonmills area of Edinburgh but with many of the main sights and attractions within easy reach. Explore the fabulous Royal Botanic Gardens or make for the famous cobbled streets of the Royal Mile, the heart of Edinburgh’s historic centre. Wander the mile between the Castle at one end and Holyrood Palace at the other, stopping off at shops, galleries and perhaps a whisky tasting along the way.
