How to Find Us
From the M4 (and M5 North), do not go down the M32, but get on the M5 to the South and exit at Junction 17. Follow the signs to Bristol Zoo and we are located on the left after 5 miles - just before the zoo.
From the M5 South, exit at Junction 19 and keep in the left hand lane. After 5 miles you will cross over the Clifton Suspension Bridge (30p in silver coins needed). Once over, take the first left and take another left once you reach the T-junction. Continue down this road until you reach a crossroad, turn right and you will find us on the right just after an S bend.
Other Routes...
From the centre - Exit up Park Street and the Queens Road. Go to the right of the Victoria Rooms (with fountains outside). This is Whiteladies Road - a one mile long road of shops and restaurants - eventually you will have to give way at the top of a hill. Turn left at the top and we are situated 200 yards along on the left.
