The popular coastal town of Musselburgh is situated on the southern shore of the Firth of Forth at the mouth of the River Esk. It is surrounded by unspoilt countryside and offers delightful walks along the river, promenade and links. Leisure facilities are varied including the famous Musselburgh racecourse, a choice of golf courses, theatre, harbour, sailing, cycling, swimming pool/sports centre and a modern private gymnasium. The town retains its original market town shape, which is now lined with numerous shops including a choice of banks along with a wide range of supermarkets including a large Tesco. There are excellent educational facilities including the Queen Margaret University. Transport links to Edinburgh include a railway station and regular bus services. Fast main roads link easily with the A1, which in turn provides access to the City Bypass, major motorway connections and Edinburgh International Airport.
