Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
You feel right in the heart of the action here with Haymarket and the city centre just a ten minute walk away, but this is also balanced really nicely with close connections to the peaceful meadows and Morningside areas. Over all, the area is great.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Management is responsive and works to help solve any issues
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Communication was clear prior to our move-in date and felt well informed.

Modern apartments with all the conveniences of city living

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
We are enjoying living in the area and exploring the neighbourhoods and beautiful green spaces including along the canal and the meadows. Lots of great coffee shops and convenient shops and supermarkets. We haven’t had any issues with noise or anti social behaviour but have noticed quite a bit of rubbish around, particularly on the bin collection days (though it is cleaned up after this). The bus services are great and frequent and it is handy being near haymarket for the trams and trains. The area is close to everything and feels family friendly.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes and they have done so quickly, resolving issues immediately
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
For people who are new to Edinburgh any tips or recommendations for the area are always helpful
Manager response
Hi Anna, Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review. We are so pleased to hear that you have felt well looked after by the team and that Alastair has been helpful in resolving any maintenance issues quickly. It’s wonderful to know you are enjoying the apartment, particularly the warmth, natural light, storage, and contemporary finishes. We are also delighted that you have been enjoying everything the New Fountainbridge area has to offer, from the canal and the Meadows to the local cafés, transport links, and family-friendly atmosphere- we cannot agree more! It’s great to hear that the virtual viewing and move-in process made settling in easier for you. We’ll certainly take on board your suggestion about providing more local tips and recommendations for those new to Edinburgh. Thank you again for your kind words and recommendation. We hope you continue to enjoy your home and the community around you. Have a lovely day!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Good: accessibility, transport links and grocery shops. The proximity to the canal is great. Bad: not much personality, some traffic noise
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has been really helpful and responsive. There were a few snagging issues, as with any new building, and they’ve been great at attending to these.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
It would’ve been good to get a better idea of what future developments at the New Fountainbridge site would be, in terms of other vendors moving in and progress on the buildings due to open. I also wish I had known the parking situation better. Otherwise I felt I had a pretty good sense of the place.
Manager response

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
New Fountainbridge is in a great spot in Edinburgh. Close to shops, restaurants and bars, but also plenty of green space with the Meadows a short walk away and the Union Canal on your doorstep.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I’ve been fortunate not to have had any issues, but I’ve no doubt they would be resolved promptly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I can’t really think of anything. My initial visit was really informative and I was able to ask any questions I had prior to signing my tenancy agreement.
Manager response
