Not quite a Yeovil but working on it! Filton Abbey Wood is the nearest station, 20-25 minute walk, and only 4 mts. from Bristol Parkway. It can be cheaper to buy a single from London to Parkway and then a £1.70 return to Abbey Wood than a fare straight through, daft!
Bristol Parkway is the best Bristol station for Rovers, Temple Mead for City, but it's a long walk. I know, I've done it, but it's nice not to be running for the last train back to London after years of midweek fixtures! At least it's another Saturday this season.
Cab is best but can get caught up in traffic so jump out when you see the floodlights, plenty of pubs on the way! Or jump on the No. 73 or 74 buses at the stop right outside the station, both go past the stadium.
The advantage of Temple Meads is that you get dropped off in the centre of town, so better choice of pubs! There are always cabs, but add a fiver than from Parkway, about £15.00, or buses from the Marlborough St. bus station. So can be done of course but the other side of town from the ground and Parkway.
To the stadium
The ground's at Filton Avenue and north of the town centre, this shows the way if walking from Bristol Parkway, not recommended!
Remember, it's in a Group Save area that can cut fares in half if four of you can travel together, and any various travelcards will make it even cheaper.
