This has attracted mostly families who enjoy a really pleasant environment that benefits from an extensive range of amenities. The local schooling is renowned with Duddingston & St Johns primary and Portobello & Holyrood High schools. Shopping is excellent too with several useful "corner shops", a choice of nearby supermarkets and the vast Fort Kinnaird is only 1 mile to the south. Buses pass by and motorists can quickly get on to the By-passes.
