Can I park near the stadium?
On a match-by-match and first come, first served basis, we offer a very limited number of spaces in our off-site car park on Meadow Lane (situated between Nottingham Office Equipment and 200 Degrees Coffee). This is a two-minute walk from the reception area of Meadow Lane.
If you wish to book one of these spaces (£10 per space), please email logan.bruce@nottscountyfc.co.uk or call 0115 952 9000 as far in advance of the match as possible (we recommend at least three weeks).
Several privately-run car parks are available in the Cattle Market area, next to the stadium and accessed via County Road and Meadow Lane, on a first come, first-served basis. These get busy close to kick-off, so we advise you to plan to arrive as early as possible. It’s best to have cash in case card payment isn’t available.
Nottingham railway station’s multi-storey car park is a 10-15 minute walk away, while the nearby residential areas of West Bridgford and Lady Bay offer on-street parking within walking distance.
How far is the train station to Meadow Lane?
Meadow Lane is around 10 minutes from Nottingham train station. When you leave the station through the main entrance, head south down Carrington Street, then take the left towards Queen’s Road before taking the left onto Queen’s Road. Follow this until you turn right onto London Round and then left onto Cattle Market Road. Finally, take the second right onto County Road, and the ground will be within sight.
Where to eat and drink locally
Nottingham is a busy city with many friendly pubs and restaurants to explore in the City centre. The best option for away day supporters is the Southbank Bar, which is a short walk across Trent Bridge.
Another popular venue is the Trent Bridge Inn, a JD Wetherspoons Pub. This is right on the corner of Trent Bridge Cricket Ground and always has a friendly atmosphere on a matchday. The Trent Navigation Inn (NG2 3HS), which serves a varied menu and sells some choice beers, is also a popular pre-match venue.
Of course, there is also food and drink available in the away end at Notts County. Fans should note that The Broken Wheelbarrow pub, which is found just behind the stadium, is for home fans only.
