Home to an attractive mix of traditional tenement buildings and contemporary apartments, Pleasance caters to a wide demographic, from city professionals to families. It is within easy walking distance of the thriving city centre and it also boasts unfettered access to some of Edinburgh’s best-loved green spaces too, including The Meadows, Arthur’s Seat, and Duddingston Loch.
