Exeter City
Directions
Leave the M5 at Junction 30 and follow signs for Exeter
city centre along Sidmouth Road to Heavitree Road. Take the fourth exit at the roundabout
into Western Way and the second exit onto Old Tiverton Road, then turn left into St James
Road. There is street parking, but quite a way from the ground as there is a local
residents scheme in operation.
Pubs
The ground is walkable from the town
centre where there are plenty of pubs. Mike Faulkner from Somerset, recommends the Duke Of
York and the Amber Rooms in Sidwell Street.
Tony Fort recommends 'The Victoria' on Victoria Road (follow
Victoria Street from the back of the Grandstand). As Tony says 'You can park here (for
free) but it is a good 10-15 minutes walk from the ground and steep! The pub is great,
very "studenty", but full of friendly Exeter supporters. Both the food and ale
were excellent both from a quality and value perspective'. Otherwise if you
like your real ale then there is the Brook Green Tavern on Well Street. This pub
is a regular in the annual CAMRA Good Beer Guide and is located only 50 metres
away from the football ground and is away fan friendly.
By Train
The nearest train station to the ground is
St James Park, which is on a local line. This is only a short walk away from the ground. However, most fans will come into the mainline stations of
Exeter St Davids or Exeter Central, from which you can either get a local train to
St James Park, or head
onto the ground by foot, via the town centre.
