Directions
by car
All directions to Edinburgh will cross the City Bypass (A720 ) on the edge of the city. When you see the signs for this road, follow them in the direction for Edinburgh South. You should then exit the Bypass at the Sheriffhall Roundabout, following the signs for the City Centre (A7 North) - also signposted Royal Infirmary and Old Town. After aprox. 6km (4 miles) you will find another roundabout, next to Cameron Toll shopping centre (a dark glass modern building with a red neon strip around it at night). Follow the roundabout under a railway bridge and take the next left onto Dalkieth Road, this is still the Old Town and A7. After 1/2 km (500 yards) you will pass a row of shops on your left. Opposite the last shop (a hairdresser), you should turn right into Kilmaurs Terrace, and you will find Kilmaurs Road at the top. Turn left and the Kenvie is on the left. Alternatively, if you miss Kilmaurs Terrace, continue a short distance to the traffic lights, turn right into Priestfield Road, and right again for Kilmaurs Road.
