Coming to the UK

  • Train At Station

York is very centrally located within the UK. How you get to York from within the UK is dependent on where you enter the country. Nowhere in the UK is very far from York: for example the journey to London takes less than two hours by train. To Edinburgh takes a little over two hours. Manchester, possibly our students' most popular airport, is also under two hours by train.
