Parking on St James' Rd, EX4
I would certainly recommend this space if you are going to watch football at Exeter. It is right across the road from the ground and also great for an easy get away after the game. The only recommendation I would make is to put a house number on the wall to make it easier for you know you are at the exact place as I didn't take this photo of the premises with me. Will definitely book this again when we next play Exeter.

Parking on St James' Rd, EX4
Excellent spot. Easy to find. Great access to the city & stations. Made one less worry for a weekend away. They even parked their cars at an angle to make sure that I had a clear route to get out when I picked up my vehicle. Very happy with the spot and would definitely recommend and will be using again!

Parking on Whitton & Laing, EX4
There was plenty of space to park and just a couple of minutes walk to the hotel at half the price of the hotel parking. It was fairly easy to find but the sign has fallen down - so wasn’t 100% sure to start off with. Will definitely use again the next time I am in Exeter and now I know that it is the right one

Parking on St James' Rd, EX4
This space served us very well. We found it easily and it was good for our smallish car though it might be tight for longer cars. We shall certainly be using this space again if possible.

Parking on St James' Rd, EX4
Fantastic parking space for Exeter City football. Travelled down from Colchester and parked within 50 meters from the away stand. Small space but idea if visiting to watch the football
