Sunny family home in Edinburgh's Seaside community

We're a family of four living in the wonderful seaside community of Portobello, Edinburgh. Our home is only a minute on foot from the beach and the beautiful promenade. We have a fully enclosed, secluded back garden, perfect for enjoying the hot tub. I am a graphic designer, and my husband is a concrete specialist - hence the concrete sofa in the garden!

Hi, We're the Gray family - there are 4 of us.

I'm from London, and my husband is from Lancashire...but we've both lived in Scotland for most of our lives! We have two kids, 12 & 16, and love travelling. We love food, design and beaches. We've spent lots of holidays in Italy, and just been to Japan. We'd love to organise swaps in Europe...but are really open to being inspired.
