Eh?

The Cabot Circus Car Park is about 3 mins down the motorway from Ikea and is far more controlled than the hell that is the Ikea car park.

there was a bus from Broadmead to Ikea, but they stopped doing it i think. There is or was a year or so back a bus from the main road outside Tescos (next to Ikea) to the broadmead, Can't help with the number though.

Not that I want to be encouraging people to drive to the city centre, but what KINGTUT says is right. If you're driving to IKEA, you might as well go on down the M32 to the CC car park. By the time you're off the roudybout into IKEA, you'll be parked up in a nice clean, well lit car park - obviously, you'll pay, but it's a good car park.

Plus she won't get stuck in the Ikea traffic on the slip road also there will be no temptation to go to Ikea and purchase some poorly made tat called 'Ollop' or such like or a box of 25 really useful things from the Ikea marketplace that will never get used.

She wants to go to IKEA AND Cabot Circus? For the love of god, why?

The number 5 bus goes from outside the Tesco carpark to the centre - just get off at Broadmead and walk a minute or 2 up to Cabots Circus.
