By bus we are on the Burton-on-Trent
to Uttoxeter and Derby
routes. The train is on the Derby to Stoke-on-Trent line. But note – be sure to book to Tutbury
& Hatton station, which is three minutes walk from us.
By car our Bed and Breakfast is best approached from the
A50.
- FROM THE M1 (OR THE A38) travel west (towards Uttoxeter) along the A50 and look for the sign A511 Burton-on-Trent (at the next junction after A516 for Hilton). We suggest that from the M1 northbound you take the A50 at Junction 24 rather than the A511 at J22 unless the MI is particularly congested.
- From UTTOXETER, STOKE-ON-TRENT AND THE M6 travel eastwards along the A50. Again the sign is for A511 Burton-on-Trent (a mile or so after the A515 roundabout at Sudbury).
FROM THE A50,
follow the A511 to the traffic lights and turn right into Hatton (Station Road).
After half a mile you will go over a mini roundabout. Turn into the next
detached house on your left and park on the drive. The house number is 20 and
our B&B sign is at the entrance. (If you go over the railway crossing you
have missed us. Then, continue over the river, turn round at the roundabout and
return using the directions below.) After we greet you we will direct you to one of our parking places.
FROM BURTON-ON-TRENT. Take
the A511 (it is signed to Uttoxeter and/or Tutbury). At the roundabout at the
bottom of the Tutbury by-pass bear right and go over the river and the railway.
Then on your right is a pub (the Railway Inn). Also on your right you will see
a bungalow and two detached houses. Enter at the second of these – No 20 and
park (temporarily) on the drive. After we greet you we will direct you to one of our parking places.
(Note, there is no direct link in Burton between the A511 and the A38. If you
are travelling north on the A38 we suggest heading for the A50 junction and
turning left. If you are using sat-nav the nice lady will probably take you
through Rolleston and along the Tutbury bypass.)
ARE YOU USING SATNAV OR A COMPUTER ROUTE FINDER?
Really useful, except from the south on the A38, they often want to take you through Burton-on-Trent on the A5121 (signposted Burton and Branston).
We think this is a bad idea.
Stay on the A38. Then, there are two choices. You can follow our directions above (to the A50, then exit towards Uttoxeter etc.) or "the voice" will tell you to come off the A38 onto the A5121 at the next junction (at an awkward hairpin bend). This is OK as long as you take an immediate right to Rolleston and Tutbury. Do this and she'll recalculate your route and everything should be fine.
