PostHeaderIcon How to get to Alderbury of Salisbury, the U.K. from Cambridge university and back to london heathrow airport?

I’m not good at directions&want to make fewer interchanges. I’ve 2 luggages to carry with.
(1) How to get to Alderbury of Salisbury, U.K. from Cambridge university ?
Cambridge-(by First Capital Connect Train)-Kings Cross–(by Underground)-London Waterloo–(by Southwest Train) –Salisbury
or Cambridge(Madingley Rd P&R)"–(by National Express-(by bus No.JL717))-interchange at "London, Heathrow airport, Central bus station" , take another bus No. SH032 -"Salisbury,Endless Street bus station, Wiltshire".
(2) From Salisbury to London Heathrow airport?
(a)Salisbury–(by Southwest Train)-LondonWaterloo train station–interchange at london waterloo tube–London–Green Park tube (by Jubliee line)-interchange at Green Park–(by Piccadilly line)-London heathrow Airport
(b)By train:
Salisbury–(by Train)–Waterloo train station–find Paddington train station(I don’tknowwhere)–(by Heathrow Express)-Lond.heathr.Airp.
(c)Salisbury-(By NationalExpress.)–Lond.Heath.airport.
Any idea?
Someone told me to go by "National Express", is it a good way?
Is the luggage storage place located outside the bus above the wheels?,
When i get off the coach, will the driver remember to open the luggage storage cover for me to take back my luggage -(if i get off the bus, i am afraid the driver will drive away because not every passengers has luggages.)-(maybe I sit far away from the driver, i cannot talk to him at the moment i get off the coach at another door to remind him to let me take back my belongings first. (i assume that one would get off the coach at another door.)
Please forgive me for my silly questions, for i’ve never gone by coach in the uk.
In past travelling experience in package tour, the luggage storage place is located outside the travel coach.
Thanks

Hire a car. Probably be cheaper and less hassle.
If you are unsure of anything just ask the guy at the train station and there are information points at all the mainline stations.

    There’s no easy way as you will have to go through London, to make it easier try this website

    http://www.infotransport.co.uk/trains/station/32

    left side of page, click on "Plan a journey" select bus or train and go from there! easy. I just did it for you and here is the result (worth ten points?) :-)

    Cambridge Rail Station
    Take the train to Liverpool Street Station

    Liverpool Street Station Stop: L
    Take the Bus 26 towards Waterloo

    Waterloo Rail Station
    Take the South West Trains to Plymouth Rail Station
    or South West Trains to Salisbury

    When you get to Alderbury be sure to pop into the Green Dragon, a 14th Century pub, very friendly and great food. It’s located at the top of the village.
