Gorebridge is approximately 3 miles away and sits about 11 miles to the southeast of Edinburgh city centre, offering local schooling, a good range of convenience shopping together with a variety of leisure and recreational facilities and all the usual amenities including restaurants. The area benefits from a regular public transport service operating to the city centre and neighbouring Midlothian towns and villages. The Edinburgh City Bypass gives direct links heading west to the M8 and Glasgow and the M9, and north over the Forth Road Bridge. Heading eastward, the Bypass connects to the A1 and the heart of East Lothian and beyond. In addition, the Borders rail link is also nearby and offers services in and out of Edinburgh.
