I have been several times and there is always a lot to see and do. Of course, it is possible to have plenty of fun when you go for a day, but for the majority of people, spending several days in the city is really the best way to soak up the atmosphere and enjoy the sights.<\/p>\n<p>As you might expect, hotels and B&amp;Bs are booked up well in advance, so accommodation during August is always at a premium, which makes rental properties a useful prospect for millions of people who need somewhere to stay for a few nights. So if you are looking to invest in a buy to let property, any popular tourist destination such as Edinburgh is always a great prospect and you can easily increase your rent during the Edinburgh Festival.<\/p>\n<p>An alternative is to let a room out in your home for the duration of the Festival or, if you have somewhere else to go, let your entire house out during August: if you are lucky and have a home in a prime city centre location, you could easily make a fortune over the course of a few short weeks.<\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t forget, it is not just tourists who come to enjoy the Edinburgh Festival\u2014all of the performers and associated support staff need accommodation as well!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Edinburgh Festival is on at the moment, so for landlords with property in or around Edinburgh, you have a fantastic opportunity for making some extra money while the tourists flock to the city during the month of August.
