An apartment in the new town/Old town, central Edinburgh, Princess street, Frederick Street area or anywhere that is not rowdy or difficult to get too from Waverley station for 10 people in total


2 adults and 1 child in one apartment ? 2 bedrooms

4 adults in another ? 2 bedrooms

Or if easier


3 adults and 1 child in one ? 2 bedrooms

You could try the student accommodation which is easily reachable from centre by walking or by bus. I have stayed there twice and the service is excellent, with buffet breakfast, and some ensuite rooms.

You may be a bit late in booking though.

I would try looking for accommodation further out like Leith Docks. Edinburgh runs a lot of people carrier cabs that take up to 7 or 8 people so 2 cabs will get you there and a bus-ride takes you back up to the Central area direct.

Both are very cheap compared to London prices.

    • Just last week I received cheques from NS&I. I wasn't given the option of bank transfer for the particular transaction. My nearest option for a parcel pick up point was the post office! The only cash point this week was the post office as the coop ATM was broken.   Many people of whatever age are totally tech savvy but still need face to face or inside banking and post office services for certain things, not least taking out cash without the worry of being mugged at the cash point.    It's all about big business saving money at the expense of the little people who, for whatever reason, still want or need face to face service.   At least when the next banking crisis hits there won't be anywhere to queue to try and demand your money back so that'll keep the pavements clear.      
    • I think it was more amazement that anyone uses cheques on a large enough scale anymore for it to be an issue.    Are cheque books even issued to customers by banks anymore? That said government institutions seem to be one of the last bastions of this - the last cheque I think I received was a tax rebate in 2016 from HMRC.  It was very irritating.
    • I know you have had a couple of rather condescending replies, advising you to get to grips with technology and live in the modern world. I sympathise with you. I think some of us should try to be a bit more empathetic and acknowledge not everyone is a technophile. Try to see things from a perspective that is not just our own. Also, why give the banking sector carte blanche to remove any sort of human/public facing role. Is this really what we want?
