The Away End
Stand Name: Copse Road Terrace
Capacity: 1,750

Additional Info:
If you are part of a family with young children, a senior citizen or are disabled, a small number of seats are also normally available to visiting fans in the Cowlin Stand which is an all-seated and fully covered Stand situated down one side of the pitch.
The away end cannot really be missed as it is the only uncovered part of the Stadium and as you approach the Car Park areas it is directly ahead of you as you turn in.
Parking
There is a fair sized car park at the Stadium that costs around £2.00 or alternatively there is plenty of street parking to be had around the Stadium.
Be warned though that after the game it can take up to twenty minutes to exit the Stadium complex and get back to the Main Road.
By Road
The Stadium is on the outskirts of Yeovil and is clearly signposted from the A303.
Leave the A303 at the Cartgate roundabout and take the A3088 towards Yeovil. Follow this road for around eight or nine miles until you reach a roundabout on the outskirts of the town and you will also see an Airfield directly in front of you.
Turn left at this roundabout and then continue straight on. Head straight across several roundabouts then as you pass the entrance to the Asda supermarket take the next left for the Stadium, which will be visible from the road.
By Train
There are two railway stations in Yeovil (Yeovil Junction and Pen Mill Junction) but both are on the opposite side of town to the Stadium. Therefore a taxi is the best way to get from either station to the Stadium.
Another alternative from Yeovil Junction station is to catch the Hopper minibus that runs to the Bus Station in the Town Centre and from there:
Either catch the shuttle bus to the Stadium from the bus station (at around 1.50pm and returning from the Stadium at 5.05pm).
Or catch bus service number 1 from outside the Lloyd TSB on the high street and alight at the Abbey Manor Housing Estate which is close to the Stadium.

Around the Ground
Away Fan Pubs
Recommended away fan pubs are The Bell Inn or The Arrow but neither are particularly near the Stadium.
The Bell Inn (Sat Nav Ref: BA20 2EW) is a long walk from the Stadium (or a shorter drive if the option is available) and is a child friendly pub which serves food from midday.
The Arrow pub is slightly nearer the Stadium (Sat Nav Ref: BA21 3TL) but is still some fifteen minutes walk away. Food is served on match days between 12.00pm and 2.30pm and children are welcome.
Where to Eat
There is little in terms of places to eat around the Stadium itself but there is a Chippy if you are prepared to make the fifteen to twenty minute walk to get to it. It is situated opposite the Airfield Tavern pub which you should see on your way into the Stadium to park.
Other than the Chippy, there is the option of burgers and hot-dogs etc inside the Stadium (the only bit of the away end that is undercover is the burger bar!).
