What you only find here

Booking sites say the Premier Inn is "2 minutes' drive" from the park. Without a car that tells you little. We worked out the walk from the road and the hotel by the Vine Inn, and read the official bus timetable data to find the X7 buses that drive right into the park grounds.

How we know

Every fact has a label

Measured by us

Someone from our team checked it on the spot, for example walked the route with a stopwatch. We say when.

Calculated from map data

Worked out from OpenStreetMap, for example a walking time along the footpaths. Good, but nobody walked it for this page.

Reported by official source

Taken from the airport, the transport company or the hotel's own website, with the date we checked.
