UK transportation

Four of us are planning a trip to Scotland next summer - July 6-19th. The
problem is we fly into and outof Gatwick.
What would be the "best" ie cheapest way to get to Edinburgh or Glasgow. Cheap
flights don't seem too available. Would it be best to take the train into
Victoria Station and then transfer to Charing Cross for a Scotland bound
train? We'll hire a car in Scotland.
Thanks in advance
