Malcolm's flat was well maintained, well furnished, spotlessly clean and in a great location with an absolutely amazing view of the Portobello beach. Communication before we arrived was excellent and entry using the key safe code was easy. We were lucky enough to meet Malcolm during our stay and he is a genial and helpful host.
The Portobello beach is a fantastic 2 mile stretch of golden sand with a gently sloping beach very suitable for safe bathing and sailing. There is a wide promenade with numerous good food outlets with opportunities for takeaway, dining outside and inside with everything from a quick coffee or ice cream to substantial meals.
Portobello high street has an interesting range of independent shops and artisan food outlets as well as an excellent fish and chip restaurant!
There is an frequent local bus service with direct access to Edinburgh city centre plus services to locations beyond Portobello.
Overall an excellent flat in a splendid location with good access for exploring Edinburgh and further afield.
