When visiting Corner house the whole of Yorkshire is on the doorstep with excellent transport links, including the 10 min interval Park and Ride bus stop on the main road at the end of the street. Visitors can easily get to the station, City centre or alternatively head out to the City's Designer Outlet, a must visit fashion and shopping destination, home to 120 designer brands all at up to 60% less.
