Drinks & Nightlife
Always bustling with a lively atmosphere this is the best bar within 5 mins walk of apartment. They also do superior bar food. Both drinks and food a bit on the pricey side though.
Nearby good alternatives are Malone's an Irish pub just beyond it and The Mad Hatter just round the corner from it on Torphichen Place.

Teuchters is 10m walk form the apartment heading towards Princes St. It's lively bar with a good selections of beers on tap and an excellent selection of whiskies. Downstairs there is a restaurant called A Room in the West end specializing in Scottish cuisine. They do a pretty good haggis, neeps and tatties as a starter if you want to try it.
A teuchter for the uninitiated is a disparaging term for a rather backward, uncouth Highlander. That would be me then.

Rose St, the narrow lane sandwiched between Princess St and George St is famous for its pubs and a favourite Edinburgh pub crawl is trying to walk the length of Rose St having a drink in each pub. Start at Dirty Dick's 20 mins walk from the flat. It's been a pub since 1859 once your eyes adjust to the dim candlelight you'll see every part of the walls and ceiling are crammed with curious artefacts. It's as if it's been added to over the past 150 years and nothing ever removed. From dusty old Dickensian paintings to bedpans, aged whisky bottles and even a witch mounted on her broomstick. More like a museum or old curiosity shop you will discover something new every time you come.

Keep going till it turns into Belford Rd, cross the bridge over the Water of Leith and take the path on the right which winds down to the river bank.

The banks of Edinburgh's secret river, the Water of Leith meander tranquilly like a ribbon of countryside in the valley far below Edinburgh city centre. Join the walkway at one of several "portals" such as at Roseburn, Magdala Cresent, Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Dean Village or Stockbridge and you'll find yourself magicked into the remote the Scottish countryside seemingly worlds away from any city. Share your journey with an abundance of wild flowers, ducks, swans, herons and if you're feeling up to it, keep going till it flows into the Firth of Forth at Leith and have a well earned drink of meal at one of Leith's excellent pubs and restaurants.
