myself and 5 others are looking for somewhere homely to let for the week.
If a chap was to stay somewhere where might that be?
thank you
expect to pay thousands and thousands for a flat in Edinburgh. Glasgow and commute by train?
Could be 500 - 1000 per week per bedroom
for example

camp site
little wood burner, a case of beer and if you go for the south side you're not a kick in the arse fom the pentlands
Youth hostel?
My flat ( 2 bed) for 1500 for a week. We will go to the alps with the money
thanks for your kind words.
1500 is the sort of price we are looking at which seems reasonable considering the access to entertainment.
Hire a huge campervan?
Student halls. That's where we stay and it's cheap as chips, and quite comfortable.
You can have my gaff for 1495 with garden and not in leith.
Cash is fine.
I used to rent out my one bedroom flat for the festival a few years back. Got £1000 for the month, I imagine the going rate is higher now. Like most landlords, I also put in a maximum occupants clause (2), and checked.
Get organised well in advance - I used to advertise on the fringe forum there is a listings service. First person who paid up in advance got the place. And no matter how clear I was about 2 people max I got countless emails from troops of Australian tap dancers.
Don't be swayed by TBC with his bungaloid in suburbia. Mine is a loft apartment in the vibrant shore area of Leith,

Edinburgh is best avoided during the Festival.

And which champagne does one recommend to accompany one's socialism?
Socialist? I used to have one of those then I shot it.
At least you can have BBQ's at mine and the Pentlands is my back garden. 15mins to town on the 10 that comes every 20 minutes and stops but 100m from my front door, there is also the 3/4 beds and 2 reception rooms PLUS dining room to consider.
BONUS POINTS for the lack of 'characters' like in leith. Du kens?
I never knew you were a bloodsports man as well, were you on the Countryside Alliance march?
Oh Oh hark at her. Just 'cos you bought a bungalow in the 'burbs - getting too old and dull to live in an interesting part of town?

Amen to that. I used to HATE the festival when I lived in Edinburgh.

Too late
I chose life
Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family.
Choose a ****ing big television, choose washing machines, cars,
compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good
health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed
interest mortage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your
friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a
three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of ****ing fabrics.
Choose DIY and wondering who the **** you are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing
game shows, stuffing ****ing junk food into your mouth. Choose
rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable
home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, ****ed up
brats you spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future.
Choose life.
You can't live life by film quotes unless from
1. Team America
or
2. Napolean Dynamite
or
3. Anchorman
More fail.
Its you that has gone down the matching leisure wear route. I chose life instead
suits you sir, suits you
girls girls, there are 2 mirrors here.
Sorry bobby 😳
Seriously its an absolute fortune to stay in Edinburgh during the festival season. I would seriously consider staying in Glasgow and commuting on the train or camping unless you feel rich
