In Planning stage of putting together a trip for next year to Scotland and London. Hopefully 4nts and 7-8 nights respestively. I know its a 4 1/2 hr train ride from Edinburgh to London. Which do you recommend we do first coming from New York. Another concern is suggestions on which underground station is most convenient to attractions without having to transfer lines. We're looking into the Mayfair, Westminster or Kensington areas. I like being centrally located where we could walk easily to sights and restaurants/pubs in evening. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think the order really matters. Check flight prices and routes and see if it makes a Difference to you. I prefer to taking a daytime flight (one that leaves the U.S. In the morning and arrives the same day) so I would fly into London and home from Edinburgh to take advantage of one of the daytime flights.
I like to choose a hotel that is close to a station that serves two or more underground lines.
