HeartOfWestLothian Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 If West Lothian/Livingston is an option then I would recommend in no particular order: - Mid Calder - East Calder - Murieston - Eliburn - Livingston Village - Deer Park Bathgate can be alright, plenty of new build properties there. Armadale has nice houses towards their train station but I couldn't stay there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never go into Armadale itself except to the dr’s. Its not too bad and brilliant price wise compared to the calders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pans Jambo Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Loads of new build flats in Musselburgh & Prestonpans (soon to be Wallyford too). Only 15 mins to Waverley on the train plus loads of bus options (26 etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah like I said the houses there are lovely and there's a nice place for food down that way too I am sure? I think Livingston and Bathgate are easier for newcomers though. My unbiased choice for the man would be Mid Calder...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still regularly frequent the bull and the tap shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livi and Bathgate are too big for anybody too care. Good luck in the surrounding villages though. We welcome incomers in Blackburn, we see them as fresh meat! In saying that I still get called an incomer by 30 year olds, not stayed here all my life, just 50 odd year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
