Excellent rail links throughout the UK make the train a great way to get to your hen night Edinburgh, an interesting fact … the Great North Eastern Railway (GNER) line is the fastest intercity railway in the UK, with a journey time of just under 5 hours between Edinburgh (Waverley) and London (King's Cross). You could start your FREEDOM hen weekend in Edinburgh with the Caledonian Sleeper between London (Euston) and Edinburgh 7 nights a week.

Edinburgh train station (Waverley) has great rail links to other major cities too.

It has great rail links to the other major cities too.

Interestingly Waverley covers over 25 acres (101,000 m²) in the centre of the city and is the second largest mainline railway station in the UK (in terms of area) —the largest being London Waterloo.

If you dare (and we do!) to cross the border from England you can do it on the M6 and M74 from the west, or the A1 from the east.
