  • The new tram network will pass close by to the apartment alongside nearby Constitution Street on completion.
  • Leith has a wealth of excellent eateries, including Martin Wishart's Michelin-starred restaurant and 'The Kitchin', many seafood specialists, and plenty of cosy Scottish pubs. You can even have food on board 'The Fingal', an incredible floating hotel.
  • The Links provide a superb open space and, according to local legend, are home to the first ever "international" golf match between Scotland and England in 1681.
