Dunbar is a lovely seaside town. It has received a considerable amount of investment recently from both builders and Asda, with a fairly new store.
My mate lives in Dunbar and he commutes to Edinburgh by train everyday. The route is the main line from London to Edinburgh. He works at the New Royal Infirmary to the south of the city and has had no real transport issues more than anyone else.
The schools are good, there is an active community and the weather is mild.
From a biking point of view there is easy access to the roads of the Scottish Borders and Northumbria, even North Yorks is not that far. The coast roads and back roads between Dunbar and the rest of Scotland can be great fun too.
There are beaches, golf courses, rugby clubs and some very nice eateries, including a hotel called the Rock, which has an excellent menu.
Apart from my mate living in Dunbar and having sampled the aforementioned fayre I have no connection with Dunbar and am promoting it purely because it deserves it.
Best of luck on the job front and the house search.
And there's a GS riding famer just on the right past the Nuclear Power Station at Torness! The Rocks is good too.....and Umberto's
