Triple or double glazing? A or A+?

Hi, I'm looking to get new windows fitted to a reasonably well-insulated bungalow in the Scottish Highlands, which currently has timber-framed windows, which have seen better days. The noise where I live isn't an issue, but I figure that I should really invest in decent windows. So, to that extent, should I go for triple glazing? Also, is there a significant difference between energy ratings of A & A+?

I'd have a look at this actually, helps you find double glazing and triple glazing prices to see which one is better: https://www.doubleglazingontheweb.co.uk/double-glazing-cost/
In terms of the differences between double and triple, triple glazing is better in some departments but double glazing is probably the most cost-effective choice. I'd only say triple glazing is the right call if you have a specific need for it e.g. you live in a particularly noisy or cold area0
