Getting to Edinburgh

Edinburgh is well connected via regional and international networks. The campus is a short walk or bus ride from Edinburgh Waverley Station. There are regular rail services from London that typically call at Peterborough, York, and Newcastle, and cross-country services that call at Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham, and Bristol. Scotrail connects Edinburgh with the rest of Scotland. There is an express service between Edinburgh and Glasgow every 30 minutes.

For those travelling from London, we recommend travelling with Lumo – a new environmentally friendly train service that is typically cheaper than LNER.

Edinburgh Airport is a 30 min (approx.) bus or tram ride from Princes Street in the City Centre. There are frequent departures to domestic and international destinations.
