There are plenty of restaurants, cafes and bars in the area. Some of our favourites are The Outsider, Elephant House and BrewDog. The city's best attractions are all easily accessible, including Edinburgh Castle, Scottish National Gallery, the Museum of Childhood, the Scott Monument, Surgeon's Hall Museums and many more. Very few properties can boast a castle on their doorstep but, within 100 metres, you will find yourself at the world famous esplanade of Edinburgh Castle. Although parking is expensive this close to the castle, options get better if you chose a long stay option at one of the NCP Car Parks at Castle Terrace, Grindlay Street or Riego Street.
