Trinity is one of the city’s most prestigious and sought after residential areas, particularly suited to family living.  Bordered by the Firth of Forth to the north and the wonderful open spaces of Inverleith Park and The Royal Botanic Gardens to the south, the area is pleasantly leafy and tranquil yet remains little more than 2 miles from Princes Street, to which there are excellent public transport services.  Neighbouring Stockbridge and Comely Bank offer a delightful array of small speciality shops, as well as a large branch of Waitrose.  Here, there are also a number of fine restaurants and hostelries and sports facilities provided by the Glenogle Swim Centre and The Grange Cricket and Squash Club.  On the doorstep there is Victoria Park with play park and tennis courts. From here there is access to lovely meandering paths by the Water of Leith and the city’s cycle path network, which runs all the way from Balerno to Leith.  The Port of Leith is approximately 1 mile away and is home to the Royal Yacht Britannia, a multi-screen cinema and a number of award winning waterfront restaurants.  There is also a David Lloyd Leisure Centre, a 24 hour Asda, restaurants and a pretty little harbour at Newhaven.  The local schools have an excellent academic reputation (Trinity and Holy Cross Primary and Nursery School & Trinity Academy) and in the private sector Edinburgh Academy, Fettes College, Stewart’s Melville College, The Mary Erskine School and St. George’s are all within close proximity.  Ferry Road is a main arterial route linking the west and east sides of the city with the city by-pass, Edinburgh International Airport, the Forth Bridge and the central motorway network
