Morningside is one of Edinburgh’s most sought after locations because it retains the feeling of being a village within the city. Morningside Road is lined with traditional local shops, interesting boutiques and great cafés and restaurants. It’s also home to Edinburgh institutions, such as the atmospheric Canny Man’s pub and restaurant, and the Dominion an independent, family-run cinema.

There are excellent local transport links with frequent buses along Morningside Road, while a 10 minute drive can see you either in the city centre or on the city bypass. There are good local schools, both state and private, and Falcongate is very convenient for campuses of both Edinburgh and Napier Universities.

Falcongate gets its name from Falcon Hall, a large mansion house dating back to 1780 whose grounds covered 18 acres of Morningside. A set of gates featuring pillars topped with two stone falcons sat at the west entrance to the estate on Morningside Road. These gates were gifted in 1874 to the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland and you can still see them at Edinburgh Zoo on Corstorphine Road.
