The property is also a 7-minute walk from the impressive recreational facilities at the Royal Commonwealth Pool, which include three indoor pools, a gym and fitness studios. Holyrood Park (featuring the viewpoints at Arthur's Seat and Radical Road) is less than 20 minutes away and The Meadows (one of the best parks in the city) is also under 10 minutes away on foot.
