“The swap with Fiona's family was an A+ experience. Everything about it went very well. Her house is large and lovely and very comfortable. The house is located outside of the city centre in a beautiful neighborhood. Yet it is near several main bus lines within easy walking distance. We also used a car while we were there and that was convenient, too. There was plenty of parking and it was easy to drive to many other Scottish sites, as well as local supermarkets and restaurants and shops. On top of all this, Fiona is very prompt about returning messages and answering questions. She and her family took very good care of my house. I highly recommend swapping with Fiona!”

About our home
Our home is a light and spacious comfortable family house in an elevated position with fantastic views over the Braid Hills and Firth of Forth. The property comprises a family lounge, dining kitchen, very large conservatory, study/TV room, 4 double bedrooms and a single bedroom. We have a large attractive garden with a patio/BBQ area and trampoline
We are situated in Fairmilehead approximately 1 mile from Morningside which is a pretty and buzzy district with a village feel to the South of the city centre. Morningside and neighbouring Bruntsfield offers many shops, boutiques cafes, pubs, bars and restaurants.
We have several supermarkets and retail parks closeby.
We are also close to the City Bypass which provides links to the airport and motorways to central Scotland.
If you like walking there are many pleasant walks in the nearby Pentland, Braids and Craiglockhart Hills. There are frequent bus services to Morningside and the city centre.
We think our home is in a perfect position providing multiple options for excursions and activities to any visiting family.
During the month of August the city hosts the Edinburgh international Festival and Festival Fringe offering a huge range of entertainment, music, comedy and the Arts.
