Situated a few minutes' walk from the beachfront, Abercorn Terrace is located in the heart of charming Portobello. Portobello is a vibrant and thriving area to the East of the city centre; benefitting from a vast array of independent shops and cafes, restaurants and bars, and the fantastic beach promenade. Notably the much loved Smith and Gertrude has recently opened a few minutes' walk away, serving wines, cheeses and charcuteries all day. For fine Scottish cooking and cuisine, the Foresters Guild offers a unique alfresco dining experience in their beach huts. On the first Sunday of every month the Portobello Market comes to Brighton Park selling local and organic fruit, veg, meat, fish, baking, plus locally made and upcycled gifts.

Many leisure and recreational facilities can be found in the surrounding area; along the promenade, there are annual events such as the Big Beach Busk and Art Walk Porty Festival, a two-week contemporary art event celebrating the local community and creative spirit of Portobello. The beach is also a constant hub of activity, The Portobello Kayaking and Sailing Club and RowPorty can regularly be seen on the water, as well as a few keen wild swimmers and paddle boarders. Further amenities include a Yoga & Pilates centre, the Swim Centre & Turkish Baths, Sailing & Kayak Club, 5-a-side football pitches and outdoor bowling clubs. Figgate Park and Pond are very nearby for a relaxing stroll, home to a fantastic variety of birds and other aquatic animals which draws many for a spot of feeding the ducks.

Several major bus routes pass nearby, giving easy access into Edinburgh City Centre in around 20 minutes and Abercorn Terrace is particularly convenient for access to the City Bypass. There are highly regarded state primary and secondary schools in the area and independent schools in the city centre and East Lothian.
