Regular public transport is available in and out of Edinburgh as well as locally around the Calders and Livingston.

Sunday at the Black Bull Inn

9 of us were seated together at the Black Bull inn at the last minute on a Sunday. Food and service was excellent as was the TL. Very reasonable prices and we couldn’t fault the place.
