Resilient Landscapes and Seas Symposium 2027: Travel and Accommodation

Find out how to travel to Edinburgh and see recommendations for where to stay during the Resilient Landscapes and Seas Symposium 2027- Designing Landscape Projects for Impact: Developing, monitoring and defining outcomes at scale.

All travel and accommodation plans are to be made by delegates independently. We have provided some information below to make planning easier. We highly recommend you secure your accommodation and make your travel plans as early as possible. 

Travelling to Manchester

If you are travelling within England, Scotland and Wales, we recommend taking the train to and from Edinburgh, then connecting to the venue by bus. Trains run from all major UK stations to Edinburgh regularly throughout the day. It is worth noting that travelling alone via car over long distances can emit more carbon than flying. If you plan to travel via car, please consider carpooling with other delegates you know.
