Situated in the charming seaside neighborhood of Portobello, Edinburgh, this spacious traditional townhouse offers a luxurious retreat for families or groups, accommodating up to eight guests across its four well-appointed bedrooms. The property is designed over three floors, complemented by a mezzanine level, showcasing wide staircases that reflect its historical architecture. Although the winding staircase, particularly between the first and second floors, adds to the home's character, it may pose a challenge for families with young children due to its width, which is not suitable for standard stair gates.
The townhouse features a beautifully renovated interior that combines modern conveniences with classic elegance. On the first floor, the drawing room is bathed in natural light thanks to three large windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Guests can enjoy stunning views of Arthur's Seat from the top floor, while the rear of the house offers picturesque sights across the Firth of Forth towards Fife. The property includes a dining room, a newly fitted kitchen equipped with all necessary amenities, and a family bathroom complete with a luxurious Jacuzzi bath, alongside additional WCs on each floor for convenience.
For those looking to unwind or stay connected, the house is equipped with full gas central heating, a high-pressure hot water system, WiFi, cable TV, and entertainment options including video and DVD players. Freshly decorated throughout, the home also provides essential amenities such as linens, towels, hair dryers, and an iron and ironing board, ensuring a comfortable self-catering experience. However, returning guests should note that the piano previously available in the house has been removed.
Beyond the comforts of the townhouse, its location near the beach provides easy access to a variety of outdoor activities and attractions. Visitors can explore notable landmarks such as Edinburgh Castle and the Royal Mile, or enjoy family-friendly outings at Edinburgh Zoo, the Royal Commonwealth Pool, and the Camera Obscura and World of Illusions. With opportunities for fishing, swimming, mountain biking, and cycling in the surrounding area, this vacation home serves as an ideal base for both relaxation and adventure in the scenic Scottish coast.
