Getting Here and Getting Around
Getting here is easy
Bury St Edmunds is very easy to reach. Just 35 minutes from Cambridge and just under 2 hours from London, it’s well-connected by road and the town has its own railway station - just a ten minute walk from the town centre.
One of the many reasons Bury St Edmunds is so popular with visitors is that the town centre is very ‘walkable’, you can stroll from the attractions, shops, bars, and restaurants with ease and within a very short distance of one another.
The stunning wool towns of Lavenham, Long Melford, Clare and Sudbury are just a 20 minute car or bus journey away and Bury St Edmunds is just under 1 hour away from the nearest airport, making it a popular destination for international visitors who combine their stay here with trips to Central London, Cambridge, the home of horse racing in Newmarket (20 minutes) and the cathedral city of Ely (35 minutes).
