Living in Edinburgh
Living in the capitol of Scotland
Edinburgh is on the southern shores of the Firth of Forth where even the bridges that span this great estuary - The Queensferry Crossing, The Forth Road Bridge and the Forth Bridge - are famous. The Pentland Hills Regional Park is the natural boundary to the south, a marker for the protected Green Belt, reserving space around the city. Scotland’s ‘first’ city may be compact, but it has the second largest financial centre after London and is home to Scotland’s second-largest population. The visitor economy plays a key role too, and the world-famous Fringe Festival, the iconic Edinburgh Castle, the stylish Royal Mile and the thriving businesses of Princes Street all play their part. Along with top-class Edinburgh University, this is a city that works, studies and plays well.
Countryside and coast in the county
Green space abounds throughout the city from Princes Gardens and along the Royal Mile to Holyrood Park and Arthur’s Seat. The Pentland Hills begin where the Edinburgh ends with 38 square miles of hills, forest and lochs – perfect for the outdoor enthusiast. If you’d prefer the sea, Port Leith is a short walk from the city centre and offers stunning sea views and shopping.
Nightlife, sports and culture
Culturally, you’ll have events and festivals, exhibitions and gigs every day of the week. Your new house in Edinburgh will give you great sporting and fitness facilities, amazing schools and universities, all within a short walk or bus ride. You could dine out every day of the week and not eat the same cuisine twice. The nightlife, city buzz and cultural richness of a new home in Edinburgh and the Lothians will make you glad you bought your new build, here.
