Cramond is situated in the north-west of Edinburgh, on the east bank of the River Almond where it flows into the Firth of Forth. Dating from 8500BC, it is the oldest known site of human habitation in Scotland. Much later, the Romans chose the site using the river mouth as their harbour, building a fort above it. Now the village is much recommended for a lovely shore-line walk (perfect for children to ride bikes), a nice place for food and drink at the Cramond Inn nand a number of historic sites to visit including Eagle rock near the Drum Sands.

Edinburgh

Edinburgh city is located on the Southern shore of the Firth of Forth with an historic central area, the unique feature of the mini-mountain of Arthur's seat in the middle and then some of the more disasterous post-war house estates in the suburbs. Although the centre of Edinburgh is only a mile and a half from the shore-line, it is the dramatic atmosphere of the Castle that dominates the city rather than the influence of the sea although the suburb of Leith is recommended for its bohemian mix of independent restaurants and pleasant dock-side areas.
