Our cultural life is outstanding. There's the world's biggest arts festival, of course, but culture in Edinburgh is all year round with concerts, theatre and opera on every week. Restaurants, bars, shopping and sports and  are well catered for too and there are plenty of opportunities for socialising with all kinds of clubs and societies, including everything from Scottish Country Dance to book clubs.

There are facilities for all kinds of sports as a participant as well as a spectator. With two top-flight  football teams, the national rugby stadium and Europe’s largest indoor climbing arena just some examples.

Excellent schools and universities and short commutes to work complete the picture.
