Areas We Cover in Edinburgh & the Lothians

AREAS COVERED

Driving lessons across Edinburgh and beyond

We are based at Forrester Park Gardens in west Edinburgh (EH12) and teach across the city and into Midlothian and East Lothian. Pick-up and drop-off are included, so your lesson can start from home, work, school or college.

West Edinburgh

From our base in EH12 we teach throughout west Edinburgh. Early lessons usually start on quieter residential streets, then build up to busier roads such as St John’s Road in Corstorphine and the Gyle and Maybury junctions as your confidence grows. Currie is the nearer of the two test centres for most west Edinburgh learners.

South and south-west Edinburgh

South-west Edinburgh is home to the Currie test centre, so lessons here get you used to roads you are likely to meet on test day, including Lanark Road through Juniper Green, Currie and Balerno. Closer to the city, Morningside, Colinton and Oxgangs give you a mix of shopping streets, hills and residential roads.

East Edinburgh and East Lothian

In the east we cover Portobello, Duddingston and Joppa and continue along the coast into Musselburgh, Wallyford and Whitecraig. Musselburgh has Edinburgh’s second test centre, which is usually the more convenient choice for learners on this side of the city.

Midlothian and South Queensferry

We also teach in the Midlothian towns south of the city bypass, where lessons can take in town centres, country roads and larger roundabouts, and in South Queensferry to the north-west. Learners here can choose either test centre, and we will help you pick the one that suits where you live.
