Calton hill can be accessed by car from Regent Road or by climbing the stone steps that lead up from Calton Hill road where it joins the end of Waterloo Place. The hill contains the Nelson Monument, the City Observatory, the Playfair Monument and the National Monument. The Nelson Monument is a mini-museum celebrating the life of Nelson with admission charges and a tower that can be climbed to get an even better view. The National Monument is a bizarre, half completed replica of the Parthenon in Athens that has
little purpose other than to be clambered over. Nevertheless Calton Hill is highly recommended for a visit if only for the outstanding views of the city and Arthur's seat.

Adria HouseThe Adria offers charming, comfortable accommodation and good value for it's central location. It is within easy walking distance of many of Edinburgh's principal attractions

I have selected the properties on Private House Stays for their individuality that results from being privately owned. They take many forms from bed and breakfasts to small hotels but in each case it is the marque of the owner that sets it apart. This may be the charm of the furnishings, the wholesome home cooking or simply the atmosphere created by a charismatic host. I have inspected most of the establishments listed here and feel sure you will enjoy staying in them too.
Remember - booking through Private House Stays is free of charge.
