Best means different things to different people, but these would be top choices to me:

1. LON to BRU: virgin-express.com
2. BRU to Scotland: tougher. Ryanair.com from Charleroi ("Brussels south" - - a stretch of nomenclature, something like 60 miles south?) to Glasgow Prestwick - - which is still about 90 miles from Edinburgh. Others will likely come up with alternative ideas that could well be better. Still, this is only 4.99 GBP (plus taxes, probably 20 or more).
3. EDI to LON (3 choices) easyjet.com

Best wishes,

Rex

Hi truppie

You can take the Eurostar, Brussels to London RT and then take the train to Edinburgh (it's a nice ride along the ocean).

From London to Brussels, www.eurostar.com which is now faster than flying. From London to Edinburgh, www.gner.co.uk. There is also an overnight ferry between Scotland and Belgium: www.superfast.com.

Geoff,
Thanks for the info on SuperFast.
It seems to be a perfect fit for our trip itin.
Have you ever been on the vessel? How is it?

Everyone else - thanks for your help as well!
