The vibrant bars and restaurants of Newington are on a 15-minute walk. For those looking to get back to nature for an hour or two, Blackford Hill Local Natural Reserve (featuring the peaceful Hermitage of Braid and scenic views of the city from the old hill fort) is just 15 minutes away. The King's Buildings of the University of Edinburgh (the main campus of the College of Science and Engineering) can also be reached in just under 10 minutes, making this apartment perfect for those studying or working in academia.
The apartment is also ideal for those who want to make the most of city living. It is just a two-minute walk from well-serviced bus stops on both Mayfield Road and West Savile Terrace, allowing easy commuting to and from the city centre. Old Town (with the world-famous Royal Mile and the ever-popular Grassmarket) is only around 10 minutes away on the bus or 30 minutes on foot.
