Welcome to our home! The apartment, which looks towards the Castle, consists of a lovely bright double aspect living room/dining area. Perhaps, even more famous in the modern day, is the fact that the front living room and bedroom windows look onto the rear windows of the Elephant House cafe/bar where J K Rowling tucked herself into a corner and wrote the beginnings of - yes, that’s right - Harry Potter! You will see from the photos attached here that the apartment also has 2 bedrooms; the main double bedroom faces Candlemaker Row itself and is furnished with a very comfortable double bed and ample furnishings. The second bedroom, although it contains a full sized very comfortable double bed, is a compact size (ask for more detail if that is important to you). There is a recently fitted modern kitchen, fully equipped with cooker, fridge/freezer, washing machine/dryer. The modern bathroom has an over-bath shower and the floors throughout the whole apartment are maple hardwood. Enjoy your stay! Please Note: The flat is right in the center of town which is great, location-wise, but tons of noise is to be expected...

At HousingAnywhere, in-person viewings are not supported — so everyone has an equal chance to rent, no matter where you are in the world. To help you make an informed decision, we recommend:
- Messaging the landlord on HousingAnywhere to ask any questions.
- Requesting more photos, video tours, or floor plans.
- Read up on Tenant Protection to learn how you’re covered if something goes wrong.
Use the ‘Message landlord’ button to start a secure conversation on our platform. You can ask questions, discuss terms, and safely exchange documents.
Keeping your conversation on HousingAnywhere protects your privacy and helps you avoid scams. All your messages are also saved in one place for easy access and as a record of your agreements.
Once your rental is confirmed, we’ll share the landlord’s contact info so you can arrange your move-in.
Tenant Protection is our service to help you rent with peace of mind. We hold all payments you make through our platform before move-in, including the first month's rent and any deposit. After you arrive, you have 48 hours to check that the place is as you expected. We only send your money to the landlord if everything is okay.
