A light, spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment in Quartermile, the redeveloped Old Royal Infirmary on Simpson Loan, on the edge of the Meadows. It sleeps four, is on the second floor with a lift, and comes with a parking space in the building's underground car park. The University of Edinburgh's central campus and the Old Town are a few minutes' walk away, and there's a Swedish bakery and café on the ground floor.
**An open-plan apartment with views to Salisbury Crags**
Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area with light, with views over Middle Meadow Walk to Georgian terraces and Salisbury Crags beyond. There's leather seating, a stone dining table, a large TV and free wifi, plus a double sofa bed for flexibility. The kitchen has an oven and hob, a fridge freezer, a dishwasher and a microwave, and a utility cupboard in the hall has a washer-dryer, an iron and an ironing board.
**Bedrooms and bathrooms**
The main bedroom has zip-and-link beds, made up as a super king or as twin beds, built-in cupboards, and an en-suite bathroom with a bath and shower. A pull-out bed for a child can be added. The second bedroom has a king-size bed and plenty of storage, and the second bathroom has a bath with a shower over.
**Stay near the University of Edinburgh**
Quartermile is one of the closest places to stay for a visit to the University of Edinburgh. George Square, Bristo Square and the McEwan Hall, where graduation ceremonies are held, are all a few minutes' walk across the Meadows. It's a comfortable base for graduations, open days and helping a son or daughter move in, with two bathrooms and space for the whole family.
