From the M9 (Stirling)

Follow this road, through a small town called ‘Newton’ and continue until you reach the roundabout at the Forth Road Bridge. Drive straight across, heading towards Kirkliston (A8000). This will take you onto another mini-roundabout and drive straight across. Dundas is second on the right with signs by the Main gate.
