Leith
Leith is a vibrant port area, 19 minutes tram ride from the city centre. Lying at the mouth of the Water of Leith it feels like a different city altogether and always makes for a unique visit. With its own distinct character and architecture, it has a lively and creative vibe. You’ll find waterfront restaurants, traditional pubs, bars and coffee shops and a great atmosphere. The Royal Yacht Brittania, one of Edinburgh’s top attractions, which famously was a floating royal residence, is moored here.
Start your day with a coffee and view of the port at Williams and Johnson Coffee Co; wander around the Shore and enjoy a beer at the cosy dockside pub Teuchter’s Landing. In the evening head down to Newhaven for fish and chips at The Fishmarket.
Leith is packed with culinary gems, traditional pubs and cool cocktail bars to suit every taste. We include a Guidebook with all our top recommendations in each apartment. Some of our favourites include:
