Portobello House | 2 Mins Walk from Edinburgh's Best Beach!

4 Bedroom House in Portobello, Edinburgh

This is a wonderful, spacious, traditional seaside townhouse, built at a time when wealthy Edinburgh families also bought a house by the sea in order to cool off on those hot summer days.
Laid out over 3 floors, the wide staircases are a feature, particularly the winding staircase between the first and second floors (note; they're a bit too wide for standard stair gates, so may not be ideal for young children). The Living Room is positioned on the first floor, as was the norm for the time, with 3 large windows that let the light stream in. From the top floor there are views over the roof tops to Arthur's Seat from the front and across the Firth of Forth to Fife at the rear.
The house offers 4 bedrooms, Living Room, Dining Room, Kitchen, Family Bathroom with Jacuzzi bath, a WC on each floor, full gas central heating, high pressure hot water system, Primary Bedroom with ensuite, WiFi, Smart TV, travel cot, high chair, iron and ironing board, hair dryers, linen and towels. Hopefully everything you need!

Summary: Fantastic property

Summary: The house was great! We loved the second floor sitting room and the proximity to the beach. There was a delicious bakery very close by. Our flight was very delayed and we didn't arrive at the house until much later than anticipated and Patrick was very responsive to our plight. The only drawback to the house might be the parking but we used public transportation and didn't pick up our rental vehicle until the day we left,

Summary: My family (seven of us between 5 and 70) stayed here and loved it. Plenty of room so we weren’t on top of each other. The living room is amazing with the large windows and very comfortable furniture. Would’ve loved a whisky with the fire going, but it was a little bit too warm for us. A 2-3 minute walk to the bus stop for Edinburgh, the beach and a Co-op grocery store as well as restaurants. I could see parking being a concern, but also realized that Patrick offered to give suggestions (and we found a place nearby anyway). Lovely home and highly recommended.

Summary: We were a group of 8 (3 couples and 2 singles all 64+). Patrick’s Portobello home was a welcome retreat at the end of each day! The home is clean, well maintained, and undoubtedly one of the most well-stocked VRBO homes we have ever booked! The coastal location is convenient for bus and train travel. Take Lothian Bus #26 in front of Portobello Town Hall for travel into Edinburgh (Princes St) and Waverley Train Station. Buses take either credit card or pounds. There are restaurants, grocery, pharmacy all within easy walking distance. A special shout out to Bayne Bakery, Butternut Squash, Esplanade, and Mira’s Restaurants! Communication with the host and caretaker were always quick and easy! You won’t be disappointed in renting this VRBO!
