Lots of car parking available, a large and modern club house, terracing and seated stands (don't sit in the first row the top of the barrier hides the pitch at pitch level). Every member of the staff we met were very welcoming. The only downside really were the toilets. The club house one's were definitely the best, but even one there had a broken seat. On a warm Spring day the ground was a nice place to be, being only about 100yds from the sea though, in the winter, it could be a different story. But yeah a good ground.
