In a lovely town called Portobello which has parks, local restaurants/amenities and is a stones throw from the beach. It is quieter and more residential than the town centre. Very easy links to the city via the 26 bus and you can get an all day pass for £4 which is handy!
Emma's place is cute and has a retro sort of feel to it. There's plenty of space for 2 people and lots of bits as bobs in the flat to help with your sat. Emma has a red folder packed with info on the local area, best places to eat and bus timetables. She als has a self of books of Scotland if you really want to go al out on the research front. The bed had a heated blanket which was the stuff of dreams when it's chilly outside (a great little bonus), there are board games & a radio to keep you entertained plus hats/gloves and umbrellas in case you need them.Emma really had thought of everything and I would definitely recommend the apartment as a place to stay whilst in Edinburgh. Thanks for having us Emma!
