| What's The Ground Like? |
|
Although originally opened in 1929, the
ground has a newish feel about it, as significant investment has
been put into it in recent years. The West Stand at one side of the
pitch, is an attractive looking all seated, covered stand, with a
row of executive boxes running across the back. Part of this stand
is given to away supporters. This stand was originally opened in
1991, but was extended in 2000, so that the stand now runs for the
whole length of the pitch. Opposite is the East Stand, a small,
covered, all seated stand, which was built in 1995. Both ends are
similar sized terraces. The home end, the South Terrace (known
locally as the Jail End) is covered, whilst the away end, the North
Terrace is uncovered. |

|
| What Is It Like For Visiting Supporters? |
|
Away fans are primarily housed in the West Stand, at
one side of the pitch. This stand is covered, all seated and
the facilities good. For larger away followings then the uncovered
North Terrace can also be made available. Please note though
that entrance to the ground is by ticket only, no cash is accepted
at the turnstiles. You will need to buy your ticket from the ticket office, which is the dark red portacabin which is
situated by the car park across the road from the West
Stand. |
| Where To Drink? |
| The ground is five minutes walk away from the town centre, where there are plenty of bars to choose from. Scott Armstrong recommends; 'The Mallard is a good friendly pub with excellent bar food. It is located by the railway station and only 300 yards from Victoria Park'. |

|
| How To Get There By Car & Where To Park |
|
Take the A835 into Dingwall. On approaching the
centre, turn right into Park Street and then right onto the High
Street. Continue down the High Street and straight on into Ferry
Road. The ground is down on the right. If you get lost, follow signs
for the railway station, as the ground is right by it. There is a
car park at the ground, which costs £2. |
| By Train |
| Dingwall train station is only a few minutes walk away from the ground. |

| Hotel Accommodation |
| If you require hotel accommodation in the area then first try a hotel booking service provided by Football Hotels who are powered by Activehotels, who specialise in locating accommodation near or within a short travelling distance of the football ground. They also have the added advantage over some other hotel booking services that you pay on departure. Yes this site will earn a small commission if you book through them, but it will go to help with the running costs of keeping the Guide going. To access their Dingwall page click here. |
