How to find us

The Spa Valley Railway runs from Eridge in East Sussex to Tunbridge Wells in Kent, with stations at Groombridge and High Rocks.

Eridge station (Sat-nav TN3 9LE) is located just off the main A26 between Tunbridge Wells and Crowborough. The station is clearly signposted from the A26, with the National Rail symbol.

Spa Valley trains at weekends are timed to connect with Southern trains from London and Uckfield, so if you are coming from somewhere along this route, rail is by far the simplest way of getting to us!

Please note that in 2011 midweek trains only run between Groombridge and Tunbridge Wells.
