Coming from England, Scotland, or Wales
Trains and coaches are a feasible travel option to get to Edinburgh, if you cannot travel by vehicle. If you are coming from the greater London area, you may find that it is cheaper and/or faster to fly into Edinburgh. Once you’re in Edinburgh, there are the following options for you to get to the training venue:
Option 1 – Uber/Taxi from Edinburgh
The venue is a 45-minute drive from Edinburgh City Centre. Please plan ahead to travel in groups of three or four and take an Uber/ taxi from Edinburgh city centre to West Linton. A shared Uber will be similar in price to taking public transport but much faster and convenient.
Option 2 – Public transportation from Edinburgh
Public buses are available and closest bus stop to the venue is 1 mile away from the venue. There will be minibus provided by the venue for pick-ups from the bus stop. Alternatively, you can also book a taxi from the bus stop to the venue.
Coming from Northern Ireland or outside of the UK
We recommend you fly into Edinburgh and follow the above directions from Edinburgh city centre to West Linton.
