The studio spans the ground floor of a townhouse.

The apt has gas central heating : free Wi-Fi ; an electric fire ; washing machine and free parking in the laybys opposite the apt .

The studio is directly opposite a lovely path beside a stream . Turn left and a 20 minute traffic -free walk leads to the sea, between Joppa and Musselburgh and just a short walk West to Portobello. There are plentiful cafes and shops in Musselburgh, though Portobello as a fashionable Edinburgh suburb has many more.

Beautiful little flat as a good starting point to discover Edinburgh

We spent a few days in Trish's apartment. The communication in advance as well as the handover of the keys worked without any problems. When we arrived, Trish immediately gave us some directions and described the way to the beach, which, depending on the route, is about a 20-minute walk away. This gave us the opportunity to end the day at Portobello Beach after a long day in the city and without a long walk home. The flat itself was fully equipped, as was the kitchen. So cooking was also possible without any problems. The flat is in a quiet location, so you were not disturbed by city noise. However, a small hint for people who are very sensitive to noices: The house in which the flat is located is kind of badly soundproofed - but everything is within reason. We arrived without a car and therefore had to rely on public transport to get to the city centre, which was no problem. A train and several bus stops are within walking distance. We had a really nice time in Edinburgh! :)

Well located,comfortable,quiet,safe and everything we needed!

We stayed a week,with a car. However,the train and busses are very close by. It was actually easier to catch the train to Edinburgh than to drive. Very centrally located for walking into Portobello or the large market near by. Nice walking path right across the street and Musselburgh is close by ( we drove). Absolutely perfect for us. ( And we had a place to park the car). We hope to return! Many thanks.

Stay at Brunstane

Nice quirky place to stay ,lots nice bits pieces. It is very compact as it states . Not easy to find , 30 min walk at least to nearest restaurant or bar down a very pretty path by a burn . Dont go here if you dont like walking, need car for everything or a taxi . It is hour walk to beach ....... ......all in all nice break and weather was tremendous which helps spend my day on Portobello beach . The Portobello Beach Bistro food is amazing well worth a visit on West sands .Trish host is friendly and always about
