A1: To North Newcastle then the A696 through Otterburn which becomes the A68. Go through Jedburgh and Dalkeith and into Edinburgh city centre (at certain points the A68 and A7 are the same road). At the Balmoral Hotel turn left into Princes Street, continue into Shandwick Place and follow the signs to Glasgow around the one way system (veering left, then right and right again) and past Haymarket Station, which will be on your left. Coates Gardens is the second street on your right.

A90: Cross the Forth Road Bridge and follow signs for Edinburgh city centre. (You are travelling on Queensferry Road). Look out for the Holiday Inn on your right and Sainsbury Superstore on your left.

Getting There by Railway

Haymarket Station: A two minute walk; come out of the station and turn left. Walk past the Caledonian Ale House, Coates Gardens is the next street on your right.

Waverley Station: BUS: Take a No. 2, 12, 26, 31 or 69 from outside the Tourist Information Centre. Get off at the stop immediately after Haymarket Station (which will be on the left) and Coates Gardens is the street on the other side of the road.

TAXI: A five minute taxi ride that should cost around £5.00.

ON FOOT: The walk will take approximately 25 minutes west from Waverley Station along Princes Street, Shandwick Place, West Maitland Street and Haymarket Terrace. Coates Gardens is the second road on the right once you reach Haymarket Terrace.

Getting there by Aeroplane

Airbus: Two companies run an Airbus service: Guide Friday and LRT. Both leave from outside the terminal at approximately ten minute alternating intervals. Ask the driver for the stop opposite the Caledonian Ale House. Look out for the 'stately home' on the left hand side and push the bell once to stop the bus. Walk back in the direction from which the bus came and Coates Gardens is the first street on the right.

By Hire Car: Follow the signs to the city centre. You will drive through Corstorphine (shops on both sides of the road), pass Murrayfield Stadium on your right and then two car showrooms approximately two hundred yards apart. Continue on under the old railway bridge then watch out for the 'stately home' on your left. Coates Gardens is the second street on the left after this.
