This place has been around since my parents lived here in the 1970s! And I dont think its changed much either. Well worth a visit for a drink.

Walks

A bit of a hidden wilderness with lots of woodland, hills and great for dogs as it is tucked away. Best to walk up Braid Rd and enter at the Lodge Cafe, which is also a great spot for a coffee and some cake.

This is a big rolling grassland and wooded park adjoined to the Hemitage with great views back across the city. Great for dogs, a run, a walk, or even to just go to the pond to feed the ducks.

A great park; always very sunny and spacious with the Braid burn flowing through the middle. A good start off a walk up to the Pentlands as there is a path that joins all the way up to Swanston Village.

This huge park within the heart of the city not only offers a real wilderness but from the top of the peak, and even from Salisbury Crags the views of Edinburgh are unbeatable. A bit further from the flat so you can jump on the no. 5 bus and get off at the Commonwealt Pool, or you can walk through the Grange away from busy roads.

This walk cuts through Georgian Edinburgh and is continuous from Balerno to the sea. Maybe try the 36 bus and explore Stockbridge before wandering back up the river towards Dean Bridge.

ESW is the creation of Sutherland Hussey Architects (which is Sean's practice!) and hosts a collection of galleries, workshops for artists and a great cafe. It's on the cycle path network, which joins to other greenways such as the Water of Leith Walkway. It's also featured in the design section of Edinburgh's Wallpaper Guide!

The museum hosts Scotland's national collection and after it's extension by Scottish Architects Benson & Forsyth it's a joy to visit. One half is a typical Victorian grand salle with the chambers accessed around the galleries, the newer half an experiential journey through a series of amazing spaces to the roof terrace. A great visit regardless of whether you are interested in architecture or history - head for the roof terrace.
