Leith has rapidly become one of the trendiest areas of Edinburgh. The former bustling port has been replaced by a vibrant cultural scene, with a host of independent galleries and cultural and gastronomic festivals taking place throughout the year. A range of quirky and diverse restaurants, delis, coffee shops, and artisan bars make the area extremely popular with visitors and city residents alike. The mile-long Leith Walk links the area to the city centre, and has a truly impressive range of independent shops and outlets. The nearby Ocean Terminal provides further shopping opportunities, along with a large cinema, member’s gym and restaurants. The area boasts some of the best bus routes for Edinburgh allowing quick and regular travel to the City Centre and beyond whilst the Edinburgh Tram line, which links Newhaven to the Airport via the city centre, is within easy walking distance. The open green spaces of Pilrig Park, Calton Hill, Holyrood Park and Arthur’s Seat are all within easy reach whilst links to the Water of Leith walkway are close by. The city centre and Waverley Train Station are also within walking distance.
