"After a morning spent meandering around the vintage shops of Grassmarket, pop into this charming café for a juice, a veggie snack and a dose of green goodness. Find your perch by a pastel-hued table amid jungle-esque decor and sip on a smoothie (the Ass-Aye-Eee with berries, açai, apple and coconut milk is delightfully sweet) and nibble on a slice of toasted sourdough or a warm bowl of veggie curry."

"Hula do an aaaamazing range of juices which as a juice bar you would probably expect. Although not totally vegan, still worth a shoutout on this list though as they did have some delicious and healthy vegan food on offer!. Think smoothie bowls, avocado and toast and sandwiches."

"In a whisper-quiet location in the New Town, this 28-room hotel makes the perfect base for those who are confident enough to venture out without a map. The petite doubles are just that – compact, without feeling pokey – but there are a handful of bumper suites with whirlpool baths and sash window views onto a private garden. The colour palette is a haze of grey and gold, and beside the modish armchairs and shag rugs the pocket-sprung bed and goose down pillows are a delight."
