Property in Edinburgh is awesome
Yes, we may be biased but this really is a fact! ESPC is No.1 for property in East Central Scotland and that includes Edinburgh. Property in Edinburgh ranges from new build, modern flats to tenement flats and historic town houses. With House Price Reports steadily showing slight improvement month on month, this Scottish Capital is setting a great trend for the local property market.

Deep fried everything
From deep fried pizza to deep fried mars bars. Edinburgh is awesome because no matter your craving, it can be fried!
Edinburgh International & Fringe Festival
Comedy, dance, drama and film come together in a spectacular fusion every year proving once again that Edinburgh is awesome! For a magical month mid-year, people come from all over the UK and the world to marvel at the arts and culture overload that Edinburgh explodes with during the festival period.
You also get to see lots of actors doing this up and down the streets for a full month...

Irn Bru on tap
Lastly and like nectar from the Gods, Irn Bru is fantastically fizzy and its orange, sticky sweetness can be enjoyed anytime of the day or night! Although readily available all over Scotland, Edinburgh is awesome because you can pretty much drink it on any occasion!
Oh and a white Christmas in Edinburgh wouldn't be Christmas without the Irn Bru advert playing on repeat...
