Remarkable 5BR Townhouse with Garden, Sleeps 12

Remarkable 5BR Townhouse with Garden, Sleeps 12 Overview

First Impressions

There’s something immediately appealing about pulling up to Remarkable 5BR Townhouse with Garden, Sleeps 12 on Gilmore Place — it’s got that classic Edinburgh townhouse character, the kind of stone-fronted, tall-windowed elegance that makes you feel like you’ve actually arrived somewhere. This isn’t a hotel lobby with a check-in desk and a queue — it’s a proper house, and that changes the whole feel of a stay from the moment you walk in. Honestly, for a group or a family looking to spread out and actually live in a city rather than just pass through it, this kind of setup is hard to beat.

Location & Neighbourhood

Gilmore Place sits in one of Edinburgh’s genuinely well-placed pockets — close enough to the Grassmarket and the Old Town that you’re never far from the action, but tucked into a residential stretch that doesn’t feel touristy or noisy at night. The location score here is 9.1, which, if you know Edinburgh, tells you a lot — it means you’re walking distance from good restaurants, decent coffee, and the kind of streets worth wandering. Couples in particular have rated this spot highly, and I can see why — there’s a quietness to the neighbourhood that makes evenings feel relaxed rather than chaotic.

The Space

Five bedrooms sleeping twelve is a generous footprint, and the townhouse makes good use of it. You get the kind of room-to-breathe that a standard four-star hotel simply can’t offer — separate living areas, a proper kitchen, and the sort of layout where twelve people can share a space without constantly bumping into each other. The garden is a real bonus, especially in summer when Edinburgh actually delivers on the weather front (well, sometimes). It’s the kind of outdoor space that makes a long stay feel genuinely comfortable rather than just functional.

Who It’s Really For

I mean, this place works brilliantly for groups — families, friend reunions, maybe a milestone birthday trip where you want everyone under one roof. But honestly, couples have flagged it too, and I get that — there’s something appealing about having a whole townhouse to yourselves rather than a single hotel room, even if you’re only two. The four-star standard is reflected in the quality of the furnishings and the overall upkeep, so you’re not sacrificing comfort for the sake of space. It’s a proper, well-maintained property in a top-rated area of the city.

Why Guests Love It

The combination of location, scale, and that Edinburgh townhouse atmosphere is what keeps the rating sitting at a solid 9. You’re getting a home in one of the most characterful cities in the UK, in a neighbourhood that locals actually live in — not just a tourist corridor. The garden adds something most city stays simply don’t have, and the flexibility of five bedrooms means the place adapts to whoever’s using it. If you’re planning a trip to Edinburgh and want something with a bit more personality than a standard hotel room, Remarkable 5BR Townhouse with Garden, Sleeps 12 is genuinely worth considering.
