Flat in edinburgh, Great Britain

We live in the upper flat of a Victorian house just a short walk from Edinburgh's beach area of Portobello. With a grand high ceilinged living room with original 1890's 'wedding cake' cornice, we have a well equipped kitchen / dining room, one double room and a smaller children’s room with full adult sized bunk beds. There is a fold down double bed in the living room providing accommodation for a maximum of six – more comfortably for four.

Buses to the centre of Edinburgh are frequent – about every ten minutes in daylight hours – with a journey time to the centre of about 15 minutes.

Portobello itself is a peaceful suburb by the sea with a long promenade, beach, swimming pool and lots of local shops. While the road we live is wide and very quiet it is only a few streets away from the A1 - the main road south out of Edinburgh to the Scottish Borders and the north of England.
