Location.

Leicester is the principal commercial centre in Leicestershire and lies on the River Soar, at the edge of the National Forest. The city is widely known as ‘The Gateway to the Midlands’.

Leicester benefits from excellent road communications, being just 45 miles (72km) from Birmingham (M69 & M6), and 27 miles (43km) south of Nottingham (M1). London is directly accessed via the M1, with an approximate journey time of only 2 hours and 30 minutes. 

The City’s mainline railway station provides regular high speed train services to London St Pancras with a journey time of approximately 1 hour 10 minutes. Services to Birmingham New Street Station run frequently with a journey time of 55 minutes.

East Midlands Airport lies approximately 20 miles (32km) to the north-west of the city and facilitates 20 million passenger journeys a year as well as being an important cargo facility.  Birmingham International Airport, one of the largest in the UK, is located some 37 miles (60km) south east of Leicester.
