Every ingredient being sourced from the finest Spanish artisan producers. Simple yet transformative, the vibe is one of chilled cheer and the selection of Sherries, wines and Spanish liquors is second to none. The charcuterie meat, which comes from ethically raised Iberian pigs, is exquisitely salted and perfectly air-dried.

Local take away fish and chip shop (also does pizza) - if you want to experience the traditional British fish and chips Eatalias was voted to have the best chips in the city in 2016. For an Edinburgh twist on the dish ask for it to be served 'with salt and sauce' to get a special local sauce on the chips.

Parks & Nature

It's a steep 10 minute walk from the bottom to the top (and about 20 minutes from the flat to the top) but the views are wonderful. From the top you can see Princes St, Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh Castle, the Scot Monument and the Palace of Holyrood House. There is a picture of one of the monuments at the top which is in our bathroom! There is also a monument to Lord Nelson at the top which has a large ball at the top of it, at 1pm each day the ball rises and then falls to show the sailors out at the port what the time is.
