Wonderful holidays

Magnifique séjour appartement bien situé avec vue mer. Très bien équipé. A 20mn du centre ville en bus direct. Edimbourg est une ville avec beaucoup de charme. Nous avons visité le Britannia et Holyrood. Balade jusqu’au sommet de Arthur’s seat. Nous reviendrons car le séjour était trop court et il reste tellement de sites à voir.

Toller Städte - Trip

Portobello ist ein wunderbarer Ort zum Relaxen, gut verbunden mit der City durch diverse Buslinien. Die Wohnung, direkt an der Strandpromenade gelegen mit Blick aufs Meer ist sehr gemütlich und mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Es war eine perfekte Woche, wir kommen gerne wieder!

Klassisch eingerichtet

Es war ein ruhiger Rûckzugsort nach den lauten und hektischen Tagen in der Stadt. Der tolle Ausblick aus dem Küchenfenster hat uns wieder geerdet. Es ist kein modernes aber sehr gemütlichliches Appartement. Danke. Gern wieder.
