Directions from the
west
The best idea would be to follow the M8
from Glasgow until it joins the Edinburgh
City Bypass. At the roundabout follow signs
for A720 City Bypass Edinburgh South and
East and follow this in an anticlockwise
direction until you reach the Sherriffhall
Roundabout, which is approx. 5 miles further
on.
At this roundabout take the 1st exit signposted
A7 North/ City Centre. Follow this road
straight into the city, past a BMW garage
on the right and the new Royal Infirmary
on the right. After approx. 4 miles you
will arrive at Cameron Toll Roundabout.
Go straight on here (2nd Exit), this road
is called Dalkeith Road, and should be followed
again straight on through all sets of traffic
lights. The road will turn into St Leonards
Street after you pass the Royal Commonwealth
Pool and then into The Pleasance. At this
point, the road will go steeply downhill
with a crossroads at the bottom with traffic
lights. Turn right here onto Holyrood Road
- we are at the bottom of this road on the
left hand side.
Directions from the
East
Follow the A1 towards Edinburgh. Take the
turn off signposted A720 City Bypass and
follow signs at the roundabout for Edinburgh
West and North (1st Exit). Follow this along
to Sherriffhall Roundabout, where you will
follow signs for A7 North/City Centre. This
will be your 4th Exit. Then follow directions
as above.
Directions from the
North
Head for the Forth Road bridge. Cross the
bridge and follow the motorway on about
5 miles into the City Centre until you get
to the Barnton Junction. Here follow signs
for the A720 City Bypass and Maybury Junction,
turning right. Follow this dual carriageway
straight on, straight through the next roundabout
and down to the Maybury Junction. Turn right
here, following signs for the Bypass. At
the Gogar Roundabout, take the 2nd exit
- the beginning of the City Bypass. Follow
on to the Sherriffhall Roundabout, and follow
the directions as above.
Directions from the
South
Follow the signs for Edinburgh then as
above. |
