Travelling to The Vale
If you are travelling from Birmingham City Centre or Birmingham New Street Train Station to the Vale Village accommodation there are two best travel options, we recommend:
Taxi
Advised if you have luggage. This will take approximately 15 minutes.
Taxis can be found in the taxi ranks outside New Street Station, and Birmingham International Airport, or you could use a service such as Uber. Please check taxis are suitably licenced or make provisions to book in advance.
Train
Birmingham New Street Station to University (Birmingham) Station. You will then have a roughly 20 minute walk to the Vale Village.
If you are travelling from Birmingham International Airport directly to the Vale Village you can take a taxi, or travel from the airport train station Birmingham International to Birmingham New Street Station and follow the guidance above.
