Stadium Overview

Quorn play at Farley Way Stadium on the edge of the village, close to Loughborough. It is a compact community football ground with a capacity of around 1,400 and a practical modern non-league layout.

The main feature is the seated stand running along one side of the pitch, while there is also covered standing behind one goal and open standing around other parts of the ground. The stadium was improved in recent years with upgraded standing surfaces, fencing and stand work, giving it a tidy and functional feel.

Farley Way is not a large, old town-centre stadium. It is a smaller, modern community-style ground set near housing and business areas, with the matchday experience focused around the pitch, clubhouse facilities and compact spectator accommodation.

Away End

Away arrangements at Quorn are likely to be fixture-dependent. For normal league matches, segregation is not usually expected at this level and visiting supporters can generally use the available spectator areas unless the club announces otherwise.

There is no permanent away end in the league-ground sense. For bigger matches, cup ties or fixtures involving a club with a larger travelling support, Quorn may issue specific ticketing or away supporter guidance, and visiting fans should check both clubs' match information before travelling.

If the match is unsegregated, away fans can choose between the seated side, covered standing behind the goal or open areas. If segregation is introduced, follow the entrance and section details published by the club.

Getting There

By Road

From The North

Use the M1 southbound to the Loughborough/Leicester side, then follow the A6 towards Quorn. The ground is on village roads, so slow down once off the main route.

From The South

Use the M1 northbound or A6 from Leicester, then follow Quorn signs. Do not rely on village street parking close to kick-off.

From The East

Use the A46/A6 from Melton or Leicester side and approach through Loughborough/Quorn. The A6 is the cleanest final corridor.

From The West

Use the A512/A6 from Coalville or Ashby side, then enter Quorn. The last mile is village traffic rather than fast A-road driving.

By Train

Barrow-upon-Soar

Barrow-upon-Soar is the station to use for Quorn. Leicester to Loughborough/Nottingham route services make this the closest normal rail station.

This entry is for rail planning only; the detailed walking route from the station is listed separately under the same station title.

Loughborough

Loughborough is the station to use for Quorn. Midland Main Line services give far better long-distance connections.

This entry is for rail planning only; the detailed walking route from the station is listed separately under the same station title.

Walking From Station

Barrow-upon-Soar

Leave Barrow-upon-Soar station and head towards Farley Way. The route is a long local walk towards Quorn; taxi or bus is better if close to kick-off.

Allow around 35 to 45 minutes on foot. Check the latest club or steward information for the correct entrance before travelling, especially for segregated fixtures or evening games.

Loughborough

Leave Loughborough station and head towards Farley Way. The route is a long walk between settlements; use taxi or local bus if possible.

Allow around 60 minutes or more on foot. Check the latest club or steward information for the correct entrance before travelling, especially for segregated fixtures or evening games.

By Air

East Midlands Airport

East Midlands Airport is useful for Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Nottinghamshire and parts of Lincolnshire, but it has no railway station. Use Skylink buses or a taxi to Derby, Nottingham, Loughborough or East Midlands Parkway depending on the club.

For Quorn, this airport makes most sense because East Midlands is the closest and most practical airport. From the airport, aim for Loughborough or East Midlands Parkway, then Quorn. Use Skylink or taxi to Loughborough/East Midlands Parkway, then a taxi or local bus towards Quorn. Direct taxi from the airport is realistic for groups.

Birmingham Airport

Birmingham Airport is the strongest airport for the West Midlands and much of central England. The terminal connects to Birmingham International station by Air-Rail Link, giving quick access to Birmingham New Street and the wider rail network.

For Quorn, this airport makes most sense because Birmingham is a useful bigger-airport alternative. From the airport, aim for Leicester or Loughborough, then Quorn. Use rail from Birmingham International via Birmingham New Street towards Leicester or Loughborough, then finish by local bus/taxi.

Parking
Farley Way Ground Parking

Parking at Quorn's ground is usually the first option if available, but the village location means it is not unlimited. Follow club directions and use marked areas only.

Expect free or low-cost matchday parking where offered. Arrive early for larger fixtures or local derbies.

Quorn Village Parking

Legal parking in Quorn village can work if you arrive early, but do not rely on finding a space right by Farley Way. The village roads are not suited to lots of late traffic.

There may be no charge where street parking is allowed. Be considerate and avoid blocking residential access.

Hotels
Quorn Country Hotel

Matchday Advice

Farley Way Stadium is on the edge of Quorn rather than in the middle of the village, so plan your route carefully. The ground sits near housing and business areas, and supporters should be considerate when parking or walking to the stadium.

Because the stadium is compact, arrive early for bigger fixtures if you want seating or a covered position. The covered terrace behind one goal is useful in poor weather, but open areas will be more exposed.

For neutral supporters, the seated stand gives the clearest side-on view. The ground is easy to understand once inside, and if segregation is not in place it is worth moving around to see which position gives the best sightline and atmosphere.

Tickets

Quorn ticketing is usually simple at this level, with pay on the gate likely for many normal fixtures. The club also uses online and advance information for season tickets and selected matches, so supporters should check the official club channels before travelling.

Away supporters should not assume a separate away allocation unless one is announced. For higher-profile games, prices and ticketing may be confirmed in advance and allocations may vary by fixture.

Neutral fans can usually choose where to watch once inside if the match is unsegregated. The seated stand is the best option for comfort, while covered standing gives a more traditional non-league feel.

Stadium Rules

Farley Way Stadium operates standard football ground rules: no pyrotechnics, no pitch incursions, no throwing objects, no abusive or discriminatory behaviour, and no access to restricted areas. Supporters should follow instructions from stewards and club officials.

Alcohol should only be consumed in permitted areas and supporters should respect the local residential and business surroundings when arriving and leaving. If segregation or ticket checks are in place for a specific fixture, supporters must use the correct entrance and section.

Accessibility

Farley Way Stadium is listed as having disabled access as part of its Football Foundation site profile, but disabled supporters should still contact Quorn in advance for current details on wheelchair viewing, step-free routes, accessible toilets and parking.

Away disabled supporters should check whether the fixture has any special arrangements, particularly for higher-attendance matches. Advance contact is recommended if a specific viewing position, seating arrangement or parking space is needed.

Stadium Tours

Regular public stadium tours are not normally advertised at Quorn. Farley Way Stadium is a working non-league and community football venue, so supporters wanting to see the ground should plan around a matchday or contact the club directly for any special access request.

Things To Do Nearby
Great Central Railway

Great Central Railway is a worthwhile extra stop around Quorn and Loughborough if you are making more of the day than just the match. It is one of the more obvious local attractions or landmarks to build into an away day.

Check opening times before travelling, particularly for winter midweek fixtures or attractions with seasonal hours.
