The popular residential area of Willowbrae is situated just two miles east of the city centre and nestled at the foot of picturesque Holyrood Park, home to the iconic Arthur’s Seat. An array of shops including minimarkets and independent retailers, as well as restaurants and pubs, are available in the immediate area, with more extensive amenities on offer at nearby Meadowbank Shopping Park and, of course, the city centre’s outstanding shopping just a short drive or bus journey away. For close by recreation, the Willowbrae Bowling Club is on the doorstep, and for lovers of the outdoors, a hike up Arthur’s Seat or nearby Calton Hill will reward you with breath taking panoramic views of the city and beyond, or, for those preferring a leisurely stroll, Portobello beach is just over 2 miles away. As well as being ideally placed for some of the capital’s finest independent schools, Willowbrae falls within the catchment area for some excellent state schools, including The Royal High Primary School and Portobello High School. The area benefits from 24 hour bus links, and due to its proximity to the A1 and M8/M9 motorway network, commuting from Willowbrae couldn’t be easier.
