By Train
|
With Edinburgh's main train station - Waverley within walking distance, the train is an ideal way to travel. Edinburgh is served by routes down the East and West coast from GNER and Virgin respectively, both of whom offer regular return fares from London below £40. Look on their web sites for special offers - we've found return fares as low as £10 to London in January and February. Sometimes it may be cheaper to book two singles. First Class can also be surprisingly cheap - under £60 return from London. GNER
runs high speed trains up the East Coast Or find the best route from any station on the TrainLine. |

By Car

The Royal Mile
is a pedestrian zone and the centre of Edinburgh is not designed
for driving. There is currently parking available in New Street
and Bristo Square - both about five minutes walk away, but both
are due to be redeveloped. Edinburgh is excellent for walking, so
we'd recommend leaving you car behind. |
