Not only is the Railway Sleeper brilliantly situated for Colchester’s town centre, main railway station (Colchester North Station) and main general hospital, it also benefits from having excellent access links to a number of key locations.

If it is the University of Essex you need to get to, we are in a good location for this being so close to a train station and opposite a bus stop. Trains go direct from North train station (about 5 minutes walk away) to the Hythe station. This is walking distance to the university and the fastest train takes 15 minutes. If you are travelling by bus to the uni, the direct ones are from the forecourt at North train station. Here you can get buses no 61, 62 ,74/74B, 76 & 78. They are approximately every 10 minutes during the day and 3-4 per hour weekday evenings. Weekends are less frequent. Although distance wise the university is not that far away, it is advisable to allow up to 45 minutes allowing for traffic.

A few minutes drive will take you to the important A12 dual carriageway serving a number of towns all the way to London or if travelling in the opposite direction, Ipswich and beyond.

In addition, approximately 40 minutes by car will take you to one of Britain’s biggest airports, Stansted. There is also a great coach/bus connection to Stansted from Colchester North train station which is 5 minutes walk form the Railway Sleeper.
