Overview
Situated in the Fountainbridge area near the Union Canal, the Bridge House is a 15-20 minute walk from most Edinburgh landmarks, including the University of Edinburgh and Edinburgh Napier campuses.
The Bridge House is home to 319 students, all living in non en-suite rooms in shared flats. That means you’ll have your own bedroom (with wash basin), complete with study and storage space, and you’ll share your bathroom, kitchen, and lounge with flatmates.
Fountainbridge, the birthplace of 007 actor Sean Connery, is an up and coming area that’s full of things to do and see. There are two arthouse cinemas here, and new independent cafes, bars, and restaurants are springing up all the time.
You’re a 15-20 minute walk from Princes Street, Haymarket Station, the Meadows, the Old Town - the best of Edinburgh is easily accessible from this central location. So whether you want to shop, eat, drink, get some fresh air, or head out for the night, this is a great place to call home.
