Morningside is a famously genteel area in the south-west of Edinburgh, Scotland. Morningside landmarks include the Morningside Clock, originally in the middle of the roadway as the clock for Morningside Station (part of the suburban railway line); the elaborately decorated Canny Man's pub (formerly The Volunteer's Arms) on the corner of Canaan Lane; and the Bore Stane, an ancient monument adjacent to the former Parish Church. Based in the south-west of Edinburgh, 5A Balcarres St is a few minutes walk from the fashionable area of Bruntsfield, which is home to boutique shopping and a myriad of independent eateries. We are set in one of the private broad tree-lined avenues housing Victorian townhouses, Georgian Mansions and Edwardian villas set within large gardens. The city centre is approximately a 25 minute walk or 5 minute taxi ride away.
