Rock House: Historic Gem - Photographer's Studio

Built in 1756 and named as ‘one of the capital’s most intriguing properties’ by the Scotsman and 'top 10 places to stay' by Conde Nast, Rock House is a historic gem in the heart of Edinburgh.

Perfect for a romantic break, the Photographer's Studio is perhaps one of Edinburgh's most unusual retreats. Its octagonal shape and domed roof are complemented by a sweeping staircase and innovatively designed living area, complete with concealed kitchen.

1 min to Princess Street.
