Nestled at the foot of majestic Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags, Duddingston offers a unique village setting, yet is just over two miles east of the city centre. With the vast open spaces of Holyrood Park and Duddingston Loch to the west, and the golden sands of Portobello Beach to the east, residents have some of the capital's most outstanding natural landscapes and views right on their doorstep. And of course there is no shortage of outdoor pursuits, from walking, cycling and hiking in Holyrood Park, to a round of golf at Duddingston Golf Club.  The area is served by fantastic local services and amenities, particularly on nearby Portobello High Street, which is lined with an array of traditional shops and business, plus a handful of thriving cafes, pubs and restaurants.

Popular with families looking for a more relaxed lifestyle (without leaving the city limits), Duddingston is within the catchment area for excellent local schools, and its close proximity to Edinburgh City Bypass and the A1 allows swift and convenient travel across the city and further afield. Nearby Brunstane train station and several bus routes also provide comprehensive public transport links, day and night.
