Ideal for those seeking retirement apartments in Edinburgh, the retirement village is situated on Baileyfield Road in Portobello, a popular seaside suburb of the city and close to the lovely areas of Joppa, Duddingston and Leith.</p><p>The picturesque and popular Portobello beach and promenade is less than a mile away from Clifton Mews. Portobello boasts a rich heritage and was a favourite haunt of seafarers and smugglers throughout the 18th Century. Stories from the area feature many familiar historical figures such as William Wallace, Oliver Cromwell and Walter Scott.</p><p>McCarthy & Stone, the UK's leading developer of retirement homes and apartments, were the main contractor on this scenic project. A selection of Tobermore's Pedesta block paving, Tegula Setts and Textured Flag have been incorporated on the grounds to create a charming and unique landscape. Pedesta is featured in rich Golden and mellow Bracken. Pedesta is an aesthetic and highly versatile paving product made with a special hard wearing surface layer and deep vibrant colours, and is also a cost-effective landscaping solution. Pedesta is intertwined beautifully with Tegula Setts in Golden on the grounds. Tobermore’s Textured Flag in Buff / Golden works beautifully with these products as the unique granular surface and mellow tones of this flag creates a natural and timeworn appearance. The fantastic Jamarc Construction laid the beautiful paving products supplied by Tobermore.</p></div>
