Read More...We liked very much our stay in Leith/Edinburgh. The nicest part of Edinburgh with a lot of cozy bars and restaurants! The house was spacious, comfortable, well decorated and a great park on the other site of the road. We loved to go along the Water of Leith with the bicycles and see the center of the city, the beach (although we hadn't really nice weather) and the castles. When we come back to Edinburgh we definitely like to stay in Leith again.

Read More...Our Edinburgh exchange was a wonderfull time. We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful Victorian house. And a warm welcome by Maura and Mark themselves. Excellent to explore Edinburgh and easily to reach the centre with bus 11 with a busstop in the street. House is well equipped, all you need is available. Recommended.

Read More...We had a wonderful time in Marc's and Maura's home. A very cosy and spacious place with a little courtyard to eat outside during summer time. The house is just in front of Victoria Park, so it was a nice walk into town, Stockbridge or Dean village. 5 minutes to the fish market of Newhaven, 10 minutes to the botanical garden or the port of Leith. Since we were there in the beginning of August, we could spent some time at the Edinburgh festival. Thank you so much for everything! Susanne and Alain

Read More...Enjoyed a delightful stay in Maura's comfortable home close to Newhaven (good seafood restaurant) and Leith (restaurants, shops, harbour). A bus stop right outside the house made for an easy trip into the centre of Edinburgh. We enjoyed the galleries and shops in the city, a walk around the Botanic Gardens and a lovely day by the sea in North Berwick. A perfect place for enjoying all Edinburgh has to offer. We'd love to return.

Descripción de la casa que ofrecemos en intercambio
Large 4 bedroom Victorian House around 2k from Edinburgh centre in the quiet, residential area of Trinity. It is 15 minutes by bus or 25 minutes walk to the city centre and 5-10 minutes walk to supermarkets and the lovely restaurants at Newhaven Harbour. There is a multi-screen cinema complex 10 mins away at Ocean Terminal. The bustling area of Leith with 100s of restaurants, cafes, and bars is also 10 mins walk.
Our home is a very spacious Victorian house with a small front, side and back garden. It has 4 double bedrooms; the master has a super kingsize bed. A very large kitchen/diner comfortably seats 8 people and there is a separate utility room. The elegant lounge has a feature fireplace with a living flame gas fire, Smart TV, DVD etc. and lots of board games. There are 2 bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs.
We have a fully enclosed small sunny patio garden with outdoor seating. Our house has off-road parking and a large single garage. Bicycles are available for your use. We would take good care of your house, as you would ours.

Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
The area of Trinity is a quiet suburb to the north of the city centre. Our house looks onto Victoria Park where there are children's play areas, tennis courts, a basketball court, and an astroturf pitch. The park also feeds into a network of cycle paths that run throughout the city. The bus to and from the centre stops outside our door and the ride takes around 15 minutes. It is also a lovely walk as much of it is off-road. 5 minutes away is the bustling harbour of Newhaven with its lovely fish restaurants and colourful boats. Wardie beach is 10 mins walk and has become really popular for swimming more recently.
