Directions by Car:
Take the M5 South, then at Junction 8 take the M50 to the end and join the A 40 towards Monmouth.
Continue on the A40 just past Monmouth to the Junction with the A449 and take the A449 towards Newport.
At the Caldra Roundabout (with the M4) follow the signs for Newport International Sports Village. (Ringland Way, 3 rd exit) This is either the A 48 or the A455 depending on which map you look at and I'm not taking responsibility for getting it wrong.
Go straight over two roundabouts, then at the third, turn left onto Spytty Road.
Straight over the next two roundabouts, then take the next left onto Langland Way, then left again into the stadium car park.
Train:
Not sure on the bestroute from the station as it's a fair walk from the ground and lazy people (or people who prefer to spend time in the pub rather than waste it walking) will be muchbetter suited getting a taxi.
Come out of the station onto Queensway, which is a dual carriageway, and turn left heading towards the roundabout. Go over roundabout and onto Clarence Road (over the bridge) - Don't ask me how- I assume there is some sort of subway type thing. I'm not the 'how man'
Take the third right, down Corporation Road -past Newport RFC.
Remain on this road for bloody ages, until you get to The A445, Spytty Road - turn left.
The ground is on the right a couple of hundred yards up- I think there was a gap in the fence to save everyone walking all the way around last time.
