A little bit like Narnia...

Good
The White Stuff shop on George Street is worth visiting if even to simply look at the shop. It's one of those hidden Edinburgh gems that you can't believe you didn't know about before! Access is good although not perfect - but I was impressed that they managed to make this shop look quirky and eclectic but still have a good amount of space to move around between clothes rails.
Disabled Access In and Around
Good
Entrance to the shop is great. Doors were propped open, nice wide ramp to enter the shop. Immediately to your left is a seating area if you're not really into shopping - great while you're waiting on friends having a browse! The shop has more upstairs, including a very cool table where you can help yourself to tea and do your own crafting. There is a lift upstairs (with a certain famous painting on the front). The changing rooms are a bit of a treat, however the design does mean they are a little tight for space. Each dressing room is a wardrobe (like Narnia), and each room you step through to is completely unique. One was an aquarium, another a space themed room, then even a luxury toilet themed dressing room...all dreamed up from school children who sent in their drawings which are pinned to the backs of the wardrobe doors. I found the Scottish knick-knack room to have the most space. It's the first on your right as you enter - but the dressing rooms have a very helpful attendant who can recommend the best room if you need a little more space!
Parking & Transport
Good
Parking immediately outside on George Street. This can get very busy - but there are also good bus links with stops a short walking distance away.
