By Public Transport

If traveling by train or bus alight at Doncaster. However, unfortunately, there is no regular bus service from Doncaster to Sandtoft (there is one run per week!) so the only way to the museum is to use the bus service provided by the museum on certain Opendays. For information about when this service operates visit our opendays section.

By Air
