Townhead Park is one of the better stadiums in Ayrshire's non-league scene, with fair-sized sections of cover on two different sides (down one side and behind a goal), and tidy concrete terracing surrounding the ground. The pavilion and clubhouse is reached by climbing up a set of steps behind one of the goals. There is ample parking for those big derby and cup matches.
