Im travelling to london kings croos and need to get to Hylands Park, Chelmsford! How do I do it?

Question

So me and a friend are going to V Festival in Hylands Park, Chelmsford never travelled on the public transport system in London at all. Can only get a train into Kings Cross and have no idea on how to reach my destination can anyone help me please?

Answer 1

get the tube to liverpool street and catch a train from there

Answer 2

Right I used to live in Chelmsford, you will have to get a tube to Liverpool street station, then the train to Chelmsford, takes about 45 mins, get off at Chelmsford station and walk across the road to the bus station and get a bus to either Billericay or Brentwood, both of these go past Hylands Park which is about 3 miles from Chelmsford town center, or get a cab which will cost about £7 from Chelmsford station.

Edit: there are loads of cabs parked outside the station.

Edit 2: They offer a free return shuttle bus from Chelmsford town center. Here is the exact page from the site.

Journey planner will tell you hot to get there and you can exclude certain methods of transport and you type in where you want to go and where you want to start from.

Either put in a postcode of a place of interest or both but it's pretty easy, it's like my saviour before I travel somewhere new!
