SITUATION:
Set within the former grounds of Duddingston House, 40/1 Cavalry Park Drive forms part of a stylish courtyard development that has been sympathetically designed to echo the architecture of the adjacent former servants quarters and stable block. The property is nestled in a peaceful location between Duddingston Golf Course and Holyrood Park, and yet is just a mile from the city centre.
The charming Duddingston village is within a short walk of the property, and boasts the historic Sheep Heid Inn, said to be the oldest pub in Scotland. Holyrood Park with the Salisbury Craggs and Arthurs Seat is located directly behind the property and offers stunning walks and views and there are many health and leisure facilities in the vicinity including the recently opened PureGym at Fort Kinnaird. The property is well served for golf, with Duddingston Golf Course on the doorstep and Prestonfield and Portobello golf courses both in easy reach.
Local amenities include a regular bus service, and a good range of local shops, including a handy Tesco Express. More comprehensive shopping facilities include Fort Kinnaird, the Meadowbank Retail Park, a large Morrisons supermarket at Piershill and the many smaller specialist shops that can be found in the nearby seaside area of Portobello. There are a number of excellent schools situated close by, at both primary and secondary levels.
The city by-pass is easily accessible which links up to all parts of Edinburgh and the main motorway network. The new royal infirmary hospital and Edinburgh international airport are approximately 1 and 7 miles away, respectively.
