Description

We have a fabulous home in Edinburgh just 20 mins from the centre, and as we are now empty nesters, we are looking for someone to rent one of our spare bedrooms. This would suit a mature student, or visiting student, or visiting academic. Simon works at the University of Edinburgh, and we are in a quiet neighbourhood, perfect for concentrating on studying! We are looking to rent a room until June 2025, but we are open if you are just in Edinburgh for one semester. The bedroom we are offering is about 32 square metres, it's large and sunny, especially in the mornings. There's room to relax on the sofa and work at the desk. The family bathroom is nearby, and you would typically be the only person using it. From time to time, we have guests, and they would usually share the bathroom with you then. We normally would be able to give you plenty of notice for this. Shared space includes our kitchen, with washing machine, microwave, cooker, oven etc - I love cooking so we have plenty of equipment. Our home has lots of space, and a big garden with summerhouse. We're a couple of minutes from a bus stop with regular buses to the Royal Mile, Princes St, Leith, Portobello and beyond. Locally we have great neighbourhood shops, cafes and pubs. There are 3 big parks within 30 minutes, and of course the whole of beautiful Scotland within reach as well. Edinburgh is an amazing city, there's always lots of art, theatre, music etc going on. There are lots of independent restaurants, and all different kinds of places to drink. It's a UNESCO World Heritage site - there is history just all over the place. And beaches and mountains are just a bus ride away as well. If you are interested, please email. We won't be able to show you around until the end of August, but we'd be happy to share any information beforehand.
