Rebecca is a lovely lady, and her kindness, friendliness and local knowledge added greatly to my trip. She really went out of her way to make me feel welcome.
Her house, in the suburb of Currie has good bus links into the city, and the nearby railway station makes it a good jumping off point for exploring Glasgow and beyond too.
If you get the chance, explore the Water of Leith walkway and the Poets' Glen. They are only ten minutes' walk from Rebecca's house and are quite lovely.
