Approximately two miles east of the city centre and northwest of Portobello, the residential suburb of Mountcastle is popular with families and young professionals alike owing to its fantastic transportation links and local amenities. These include independent shops, a pharmacy and a florist, plus a Morrisons supermarket and petrol station. Nearby Portobello High Street offers traditional shops, bars and restaurants; for more extensive shopping and leisure, Fort Kinnaird Retail Park is within driving distance.

Residents of Mountcastle are never more than a few minutes' from a wealth of outdoor activities with Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags offering lovely walks and hiking. For sport and fitness enthusiasts, nearby Meadowbank Sports Centre offers state-of-the-art facilities.

Mountcastle is served by excellent local schools in both the public and private sectors. Due to its close proximity to the A1, Mountcastle enjoys convenient links into the city centre, including 24/7 bus services, and is also handy for Edinburgh City Bypass and further travel across East Lothian and the central belt.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on April 22, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 22, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on November 24, 2017 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
