Portobello was found to be the second happiest place to live in Scotland following a survey by Furniturebox. The company listed the 75 happiest places to live in the country after speaking to 5,000 people across the country.
Callander, which is known as the Gateway to the Highlands due to its location near Loch Lomond, earned the top spot.
Locations were ranked according to the beauty of the surroundings and green spaces, provision of good state schools and affordable housing, as well as access to quality pubs, restaurants, independent shops and cultural attractions.
A Furniturebox spokesperson said: “All the places on the list would have been worthy winners and show why the UK is such a wonderful place to live, loved by visitors from all over the world.
“Most of the locations in the top 75 UK locations are not the most affluent in their localities and have access to some affordable housing including Callander which is very popular with families.
"The survey shows that the happiest places are not defined by wealth but by the quality of life within them.”
