Beschrijving van onze buurt en omgeving
Friendly, quiet street with very nice neighbours, close to beach and prom.
Lots of walks nearby. With good bus/train links directly into the centre of Edinburgh. Or alternatively drive
East to access the beautiful East Lothian countryside, particularly good for golf enthusiasts, or keen walkers, castles and clifftop walks all within 30 minutes drive.
A short bus/train ride or drive to Historic Edinburgh, 'the Athens of the North', full of fantastic cultural heritage as well as brilliant nightlife. Regularly voted one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Edinburgh Castle is Scotlands number 1 tourist destination. You must also visit the beatiful Botantical gardens and Edinburgh Zoo is great for the kids - go and see the pandas. The National Scottish museum is a great day out, or visit the recently constructed Scottish Parliament building for an organised tour. Or why not a ghost tour of the old town.

Onze tips voor leuke activiteiten en uitjes bij ons in de buurt
From our house it is a short walk East to the beautiful Portobello/Joppa beach (5 minutes) with beachside cafes and bars, fish and chip shops and also amusements. There is also a fantastic brand new large soft play indoor area for the kids at Portobello if you have little ones, if they are bored of the beach.
A ten minute bus journey to the South of our home takes you to the shopping mall at New Craighall, with a good selection of quality shops many eating out options and also a brand new multiplex Cinema complex.
