If your train does not go through Haymarket then from Waverley the house is a 30 – 35 min walk from Waverley. Bus from Princes Street is number 10 or 27. Both turn on to Gilmore Place. Getting off the bus at first stop, cross the road and you will find us just a little further along (the fourth house in the Georgian terrace, beyond the shops). The 11, 15 or 16 bus also run from Princes Street. Disembark at the first stop after the Kings Theatre, cross the road, then turn into Gilmore Place, directly opposite the Kings Theatre .

Please note the first part of Gilmore Place on the right (from the King’s Theatre end)  is “Lochrin Buildings” so continue along past the shops and on the right you will see our black and white Emmaus sign.

This does not apply if coming from Haymarket Station as you will come to our house first.
