Overlooking Calton Hill, Leopold Place is within walking distance of the Edinburgh Playhouse, John Lewis, Harvey Nichols and Multrees Walk. Broughton Street, just a few streets away, has a plethora of wonderful, independent restaurants, bars and bistros. St Andrew Square bus station is around the corner, serving central Edinburgh and beyond. Tram links to Edinburgh International Airport can also be found here and within less than a mile is Waverley Train Station. Furthermore, the flat is conveniently placed for Edinburgh's central business district and the Scottish Parliament and University buildings are within easy reach.
