The food and wine and attention to detail here are quite exceptional! One of my favourite restaurants to go in to in Edinburgh for a special evening. (The Lunch menu is amazing too!) It is pricey and it is one to get dressed up for xx

If you are after Pizza, Pasta....Sit In, Delivery or Take Away these guys always get it right. They are two mins away from the house as well so an easy walk home.

If you are looking to stay in shape while you are away this place is great! Great diversity of clients, you can pay as you go and if you need some motivation please ask for Paul Merrie, I have had personal training with him for years, and despite living in three different countries he is simply the best and I still train with him when I come back to Edinburgh.

If you are looking for somewhere to get your hair done and or make-up and nails, look no further than Kim's. The whole team here are incredible, however, my go-to recommendation is Mark for my hair - and has been for years. Holly (Kim's daughter) is a perfectionist and will take care of your beauty needs. Stockbridge, where the hairdressers is located is a beautiful area of the city with lots of lovely shops to pop into.
