Albany Street is located within the very heart of the historic New Town district of Edinburgh, which lies a short walk from the city centre. The New Town has some of the first and least spoilt Georgian architecture in Britain and continues to be one of the most popular areas in Edinburgh. Within easy reach are several golf courses, tennis clubs and bowling greens. Edinburgh Playhouse can be found within striking distance and shows high calibre national theatre productions throughout the year. Queen Street Gardens provides a huge, beautiful outside space, ideal for children to play in and for walking dogs. For city centre life, this is an amazing facility.

The recently opened St James Quarter is within walking distance of the property. This impressive retail led development plays host to a fantastic selection of restaurants, bars, cafés, shops, public spaces and leisure venues. Also nearby are John Lewis and all the essential shops on Princes Street, from flagship stores to local independent shops. St Andrew Square Bus Station is around the corner, serving central Edinburgh and beyond. Tram links to Edinburgh Airport can also be found here and within 0.4 miles is Edinburgh Waverley Train Station. Broughton Street, just a street away, has a plethora of wonderful, independent restaurants, bars and bistros on offer.
