Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our 3rd floor apartment has the period features of a typical Edinburgh flat and is bright and cosy. The area in which it is located, Marchmont, provides quick access to many of the main historic sites (15 minutes by foot to the castle and the old town) and cultural venues (15 minutes by foot to National Museum of Scotland, another 5 minutes will get you to the Scottish National Gallery and the main Edinburgh Festival venues). The area is also very well connected by public transport. In the immediate vicinity you will find various cafes, restaurants, traditional pubs and shops. Both mountains (Pentlands) and the sea (Firth of Forth) can be reached within a 30 bus ride. Just around the corner the "Meadows", one of Edinburgh's parklands, provides scope for a run or a stroll.
