Location

Located approx three miles northeast of the city centre, Portobello enjoys the best of both worlds: a quaint seaside ambience with the perks of city life right on its doorstep. Within walking distance of sandy beaches, and within sight of Arthur's Seat and minutes of the picturesque East Lothian countryside, it is easy to see why this is one of the capital's most popular postcodes! The area is served by a fantastic range of local services and amenities, with more extensive shopping facilities available in Musselburgh or Fort Kinnaird just a short drive away. The bustling High Street is lined with a charming array of shops, including cafes, restaurants, galleries, independent retailers, several bakers, butchers, and greengrocers. Portobello Swim Centre boasts swimming facilities, a well-equipped gym, and a varied programme of fitness classes, as well as Edinburghs only publicly available authentic Turkish Baths. Portobello offers a superb choice of schools in both the public and private sector. It is within the catchment areas for well-regarded Towerbank, St. John's RC and Brunstane primary schools, with both Portobello and Holyrood high schools within easy reach. The area is extremely popular with commuters owing to its excellent public transport links into the city centre, as well as its close proximity to Edinburgh City Bypass and the A1.

Extras
