Sue In Yorkshire. Report 6 May 2015 09:13

I have looked at a map of coach station/rail station in relation the distance from the hotel and the coach station is a lot nearer so guess what I am coming in by coach now.plus it's a lot cheaper. :-D :-D :-D

What a good idea Wend, they get in around 1pm

Tawny, The bus station is diagonally across the road from the train station. A short walk either round the pavement or through a covered walk way (best option). The Queens is at the far end of the bus station through an archway from where the coaches drop off.
The hotel. If you walk through the centre of the bus station to the furthest side (away from the trains) to the right side is the coach drop off, to the left is a set of steps. Up the steps and there is a pub on the corner called The Penny Black, to the right of this leads you down the road to Old Queens, to the left (as you are facing it) go down the (sloped) road under the bridge ...I will say this road looks a bit scarey in the dark..under the bridge and on the left hand side is the IBIS. If you get to the Norfolk Arms you have gone 1 building too many :-D

As said previously on Tuesday 9th June maybe even on the Monday I will put a phone number on here so I can be located.
