Getting a taxi? Here's some options
Uber
Info:
If you are travelling FROM central Edinburgh TO Bilston/Loanhead, then you can usually get an Uber
We recommend that you try to start booking 20-30 mins sooner than planned, because it can sometimes be difficult to get someone to drive all the way out of town
It may be especially difficult to get an Uber BACK INTO EDINBURGH late at night, so a night bus or local taxi service might be best
