LOCATION and AMENITIES

The Fergusson Apartment is ideally located in a prime residential area close to a variety of local amenities and attractions. Nearby (less than 0.5 mile) is a Waitrose supermarket, whilst a short walk down the hill is Stockbridge, one of the City's original 'villages', which has many excellent small shops offering fresh produce, a delicatessen, post office, library, public swimming pool and a good variety of restaurants and pubs.

The City Centre is reached by a short walk over Thomas Telford's Dean Bridge spanning the Water of Leith, with the historic Dean Village in the valley to the west and the private wooded Dean Gardens to the east - access to which is available to guests. To the north, by way of Stockbridge, the Water of Leith and Inverleith Park, is the world renowned Royal Botanic Garden.

As befits a capital city, Edinburgh has an abundance of attractions - historical, architectural, cultural, educational, scenic and sporting. Home of the Edinburgh International Festival, there are many places of interest. Within a few minutes walk from the apartment, in the west end of the city centre, are The Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, and the Dean Gallery with exhibits of modern Scottish and European sculpture and art - both galleries have excellent cafeteria/coffee shops.
