Yes, I'm wondering if it's worth going to visit and if there's anything else nearby. The photos I've seen look really neat.

There is a small area known as Colinton Village nearby, but some shops and services are gone from there now.
There are a couple of pubs and shops.
It has a very old churchyard at Colinton Parish Church that's worth a look, and Spylaw Park nearby the tunnel is pretty , with an old house, Spylaw House, in the middle.
My dear friend lived near there for years , and another friend had a flat in the old house for a while.
If you just want a different residential view of Edinburgh, it's quite pretty around there on a nice day.
Just get a city bus there and back, sit on the top level at the front so you can look at people's gardens from above!
Number 45, 10 or 16.
Takes about 30-40 mins from the centre of Edinburgh.
