Regular public transport facilities to Leeds city centre, via Headingley and the university, run on nearby Otley Road (less than five minutes walk) and also on Otley Road there is the Leeds Core Cycle Network Route from West Park into Leeds. Excellent shopping facilities can be found at Headingley, Horsforth, Moortown and Meanwood and all of which are within approximately 10 minutes drive and offer a choice of supermarkets including Waitrose, Sainsbury's and Morrisons.
