Thanks.   It looks like bus 6702, then a 1/2Km walk.


I really don't trust my google walking searches.  In Edinburgh it had me 
walking up these really steep stairs (carrying my roller bag) then down 
a twisting road to get from the train station to my hotel.  ~1/2Km 
longer would have been around the hill...
