Dean Village

Five minutes on foot from Princes Street, this former miller's settlement along the Water of Leith looks as though it belongs to an entirely different city. Stone bridges, 19th-century Tudor-style facades and a quiet riverside walkway — from here, the walk towards the Stockbridge quarter takes another fifteen minutes or so and passes through one of Edinburgh's most beautiful areas.
