Ryanair flight change arriving at 23:50 instead of 15:30 so no trains?

With a week to go they have changed our arrival time by over 11 hours. Is there anything I can do? They say I can change/refund my flight but there are no suitable alternatives to any airport. I have checked all London, Manchester, Liverpool and Birminghan.
In order to get "good" times we are departing from Gatwick and returning to Bristol and were planning to take the train home to South Wales in the afternoon. Now we get in after the last train has departed. I have tried a few taxi firms and they are all booked up. By the time we would get to a hotel it would be after 1am and then we would still have to catch a train.

Isn't that eight hours not eleven ?
October is usually when schedules change from summer schedule to winter which appears to be what has happened here.
Without knowing where you are flying FROM it is impossible to say if there are any alternatives or not though !!
Apart from changing flights I'm not sure what you are asking as in "Is there anything I can do" your options are change flights, take the current flight or cancel- What else did you have in mind ?
Maybe give us the date and departure airport in case you've missed something.I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

It looks like your only option is airport hotel and train home the following morning. Not ideal at all, but at this stage not sure what else you can do apart from cancel the whole thing which I assume is not viable?0

Sorry yes you are right. It is 8 hours but as it is Bristol airport from Gran Canaria I can't seem to find an alternative. And airport has no onsite hotels.0

Taxi or airport bus to a hotel near the station in Bristol then. Last airport bus to Temple Meads is 01.20, and takes about twenty minutes.No free lunch, and no free laptop

Depends where you live in South Wales but the National Express bus leaves Bristol Airport for Cardiff at 0015, 0215 and 0415. It takes 80 mins and costs £13pp0
