Arriving by plane in Edinburgh The options are:  1. A taxi direct to the flat which costs approximately £25.00   2. Edinburgh Shuttle - a shared taxi system which will deliver passengers to their destination address and costs £8.00 single journey for one person, £15.00 for two people and an extra £6.00 for each additional person.  If there are more than two people travelling the fare is not much less than the taxi fare. This service has to be booked in advance and it is unclear what the situation is if flights are delayed. The website is www.edinburghshuttle.co.uk and online bookings are accepted.  3. Airport bus to Waverley Bridge adjacent to Waverley Train Station. Airlink bus (Number 100) rate is currently only £5.00 per person (open return ticket)  The Airlink bus (No 100) terminates on Waverley Bridge opposite Waverley Train Station, please see directions below. 4. No 35 Lothian Service bus which takes just over an hour and which passes down High Street, where there is a bus stop near John Knox House/Netherbow only one/two minutes from the flat.  The fare is £1.00 per person.  No 35 leaves from a bay close by the domestic passenger door of the terminal building - a few stances away from bus No. 100.  Although this bus takes a little longer than the Airlink bus, you do not then need a taxi /walk from Waverley Bridge where the Airlink bus terminates. Timetables for No. 35 are available at www.lothianbuses.co.uk/r35.htm

Arriving by Train/Airport Bus   From Airport Bus Stances/Waverley Train Station/Waverley Bridge, we suggest a taxi to the flat, as it is an uphill climb to the Old Town area, a bit challenging when carrying luggage. There is a taxi rank within and another outside Waverley Train Station - on the opposite side of the street to the Airport Bus Stances, or it is often possible to hail a taxi.  The taxi fare from there to the flat is about £3.50.  

By bus from Waverley Bridge to the flat.  The number 36 Lothian bus leaves regularly from outside Waverley Train Station on Waverley Bridge and stops accross the street from the flat - first stop in St. Mary's Street. Fare £1.00 per adult 60p. for children.  From the bus stop in St. Mary's Street,  walk up to traffic lights and cross at lights towards side of Worlds End Pub.  Walk a few metres down St. Mary's to just beyond Waverley Pub and the next door is the main door of No. 7.  The bell for flat no. 7 is top right.

Should you prefer to walk to the flat from Waverley Bridge, follow the route, (walking away from Princes Street) - Waverley Bridge - left into Market Street - a few metres on, cross to other side of Market Street at panda crossing towards City Art Centre, left and follow road under North Bridge bearing right into Jeffrey Street, at the top of which (Tass Pub) go straight across at traffic lights to World's End Pub/ St. Mary's Street. The main door of Number 7 is immediately after the Waverley pub in St. Mary's Street about 10 metres from the corner of High Street/St. Mary's Street. The flat bell is the top right bell.

Arriving by bus in Edinburgh at St. Andrews Square Bus Terminal.    As above, you can get a taxi direct to the flat from the taxi rank in the square.  On Foot: (Ten minutes) Walk down to Princes Street via South St. Andrews Street. Cross over Princes Street towards Princes Mall via the panda crossing - turn right - and a few metres on - left into Waverley Bridge. Follow above directions from there.  Alternatively:- cross Princes Street and turn left - walk as far as North Bridge - right and walk up North Bridge to traffic lights at cross roads of North Bridge/High Street and cross North Bridge diagonally towards Bank Hotel (not recommended unless 'green man' is showing at lights) continue down High Street to the corner of St Mary's Street, (World's End pub on corner) turn right and ten metres or so down - just beyond the Waverley Pub is the main door of No. 7  The flat bell is top right.
