Location
Old Fishmarket's Close is one of Edinburghs oldest closes and in the hey day was the fish and poultry market on the Royal Mile. This steep and narrow lane plunges down from the Royal Mile to Cowgate, connecting the different areas of Edinburgh life.
On one end of the Royal Mile is the Edinburgh Castle and to the other end is Holyrood Palace - all within an easy stroll from the apartment.
The shopping and entertainment area around Princes Street and George Street is ideally situated approximately half a mile away and provides a huge array of retail outlets, supermarkets, restaurants, clubs and bars.
Many of the city's most visited historical and cultural attractions can be found in the Old Town, including Edinburgh Castle, the National Museum of Scotland and Holyrood Palace. Both Princes Street Gardens and Holyrood Park are approximately half a mile away and provide extensive parklands to enjoy for those who like to walk, run and cycle.
Waverley Railway Station is approximately half a mile away, while a comprehensive network of bus routes can be found within the locale that serves the local and surrounding area.
Old Fishmarket?s Close is the perfect location for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival venues. The High Street on the Royal Mile (between Cockburn Street and George IV Bridge) is full of vibrant street performers.
