Plan your Exeter City away day

Exeter is unusually easy to combine with a city visit: the centre, cathedral, pubs and stadium are all walkable, while the local station sits beside the ground.

City centrebest overall base15 minswalk from Exeter CentralExeter Quaylonger-day option
01

City centre first

Arrive at Exeter Central or St Davids, use central pubs, then walk to St James Park.

02

Straight to the ground

Change onto the local train, use the fan zone or Centre Spot and enter from St James Road.

03

Weekend in Exeter

Stay centrally and add the cathedral, RAMM or the quay without complicating matchday travel.

A sensible 3pm plan

10:30-11:00 - arrive early for the cathedral, RAMM or Exeter Quay.

12:30 - move towards the Old Firehouse, Victoria Inn or the stadium bars.

14:15 - choose the correct terrace or seated entrance.

17:00 - walk to Exeter Central or wait for a local train connection.

Food and pubs

The Exeter pub map includes the Centre Spot, Victoria Inn, Stoke Arms and Old Firehouse. The stadium fan zone is useful but can exclude away fans for selected fixtures.

Things to do

Exeter Cathedral, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Northernhay Gardens are close to the central route. Exeter Quay is worthwhile with an extra hour or two.

Hotels by the main station

Supporters with an early mainline departure may prefer Exeter St Davids. Premier Inn Exeter Central St Davids is directly useful for that plan, though it is farther from the ground than the city-centre hotels.

Travel, parking, ticket allocations and stadium procedures can change by fixture. Check the latest information from both clubs and the relevant operator before travelling. Guide checked 11 September 2026.
