Personal Chef with The Edinburgh Address; from 3 course fine dining to freshly prepared meals you can pop in the oven.
We are delighted to announce our collaboration with Robin Morton, a chef with many years experience at some of Edinburghs top restaurants.
Perhaps you dont want your stay to be fully self catered or at all? Here at the Edinburgh Address, we can provide a personal chef to assist in your catering needs.
Would you like a fully prepared, delicious meal waiting at your apartment, which you can heat at your leisure? Or enjoy an exquisite 3 course meal freshly prepared by Robin in your apartment leaving you to enjoy the company of your fellow guests or have that extra time to explore Edinburgh!
We like to offer our guests choice and flexibility with their catering requirements and while we offer suggestions for meals using seasonal, fresh Scottish produce, we like to tailor our catering solutions to guests individual needs.
Very reasonable prices, from 15GBP per head. Subject to availability.
Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

My partner Sean is an avid cyclist and today I accompanied him to Glentress where there are some fabulous mountain bike trails and walks. While he enjoyed a quick spin round the 'red run' I had a lovely walk with my frend Liz and Bella the dog. One of the best parts was a welcome coffee and homemade cake in the Hub Cafe, where all the cyclists pile in after their runs.
It reminded me of how accessible these facilities are from Edinburgh. Indeed our Newington Urban Living Apartment would be ideal for those guests who wish to stay in Edinburgh and take advantage of the fabulous Borders countryside. Moreover, Newington Urban Living has a bike lock up for guests to store their bikes.
From this apartment is is only a 45 minute drive to Glentress. Bikes can be hired at The Hub. |

The Edinburgh Address (Anne Marie and I) are just back from the fantastic ASSC (The Association of Scotland's Self Caterers) conference held at the Aviemore conference centre.
 We thoroughly enjoyed it and thought all workshops were informative and interesting. In particular we enjoyed hearing the thoughts of the guest speaker,Iain Herbert, Chief Executive of the Scottish Tourism Forum, and his thoughts on Scottish tourism in general.
We recommend to others involved in self catering to join the ASSC as it is a great source of information and advice. The ASSC conference for example provided us with the chance to meet with other people involved in self catering and to share experiences, network and socialise!
The ASSC believe that self catering provides guests with Freedom, Authenticity, Quality, Independence and Choice - we could not agree more!
