On reaching the western end of Prince's Street, coming from the West, the one-way-system leads guests northwards to Queen Street, and via the John Lewis roundabout onto Leith Street. Drive towards the South over North Bridge, turn left onto the High Street, then take the first right onto Niddry Street, left onto Cowgate and left onto Blackfriars Street.
