Where are we?

Portobello is located 3 miles (5 km) east of Edinburgh's centre, this seaside town on the Firth of Forth originated from a single thatched cottage in the mid 18th Century held by a veteran of the 1739 campaign at Puerto Bello in Panama. By the end of the century it had become a fashionable bathing resort for Edinburgh's well to do. It was also a working town and former industries produced bottles, bricks, glass, lead, paper, pottery, soap and mustard. The town was made a burgh in 1833 and was incorporated into Edinburgh in 1896.

The Abercorn Nursing Home is located within the town in close proximity to local amenities including shops, banks and churches and is easily accessible by public transport. The Nursing Home is situated on the main coastal road and has attractive views to the front overlooking the public park to the promenade and the sea beyond.
