Hogwarts grounds. I am almost positive the bus stopped outside 
Hogsmeade (or outside Hogwarts grounds) and they had to walk to 
Hogwarts and I don't remember reading where Dobby apparated in 
Hogwarts. Could someone enlighten me?

Valky:
I dont believe Dobby actually apparated *into* or *out of* Hogwarts. 
I assume since the students learn apparition at school during their 
latter years that apparition *within* Hogwarts Grounds is permitted 
and possible. 
In the paragraph where Dobby apparates in Hogwarts (COS The Rogue 
Bludger)  Macgonagall and Dumbledore are approaching the hospital 
wing with Colin Creevey, who has been petrified, so he *needs* to 
make a quick exit, in this case an adjacent room out of view of the 
teachers would suffice or even to the Howarts entrance where he 
could run through to the other side and apparate home.

******I think that the attack is already planned, has been since 
Chamber Of Secrets, and the assault will come from behind the mirror 
on the Fourth floor!!!*********
