There is a complicated road layout near IKEA but it’s not impossible you’ll be fine. Also my Mrs said she would never drive in Spain but has found it very easy. Give it a go. Roundabouts? Just stay in the right hand lane. Simple. Watch out for the idiots trying to exit the roundabout from the left hand lane (which is illegal)!

Makes me feel better if your wife has tried it I intend to drive and have a go in two weeks when we are next out to Punta. Fingers crossed

The round about at Ikea is massive about 6 lanes wide in places alway keep to outside and indicate left until your exit

Hi We used a company called Flatpaxabia based in Torrevieja. We shopped in Ikea in the UK and sent our order to them. They converted to Spanish reference numbers and shopped for us and delivered. It was a great service!

I'm surprised that if you're in Rojales you know about the roundabout, but you're correct about it.
When we go, we go down the A7, go to Nueva Condomina for me to visit Leroy Merlin and my wife to get her fix of clothes shops, and then across the little bridge over the A7. Access to Ikea is easy that way, and the roads are quiet.
Yes jim thats the best way in the other is a nightmare not so bad when you have done it a few times and there's the beggar at the roundabout as well

We will try and go early mid week in the hope given its our first time the roads may be a bit quieter. Will let you know how our trip goes???
Cheers Joe and Babs

That sounds good, our problem is we don't have a clue what kind of kitchen doors we want etc like I said before no doubt we will take ages to choose. Plus the fact we like to see the goods for ourself so let's hope we will be happy shoppers?
Cheers Babs
