I became a Gloucestershire member for the first time last season and tried to watch as much cricket as possible even though it was difficult as i was playing every weekend. The main reason i enjoyed it so much was visiting away grounds. I only visited worcestershire, hampshire and leicestershire's grounds. Leicestershire's ground had alot of charm and Worcestershire and hampshires membership facilities were IMO world class.
Which other grounds (especially div 2 teams!) would you suggest I visit this season? I see we have essex away at the start of the season. Worth a visit?
Many thanks!

Which essex ground is it? The chelmsford ground is nice. Quite small but good atmosphere

Dunno when Hampshire finish the work at their ground but from the 3d models it looked awesome when complete  . May be worth another visit when its done!

Edit : Hampshire members can only sit on top of the pavillion in LVCC games now , we used to be able to get up there for all county games  .

lancs should be good when all building work is done although I think a lot of games are at liverpool!

Having played at Liverpool, it's lovely there too!

Worcester, when it's not flooded ... the cakes in the ladies pavilion are just yuuummy!  And you can sit right below the changing rooms where the players walk on/off the field

I used to really like the kent ground but have to say its not the same since the redevelopment work

Really like the St Lawrence ground, excellent food and local beer available and you can also sit close to the players balcony and they let you onto the ground during the breaks in play and the groundsmen are very friendly when you talk to them.

Taunton has a great atmosphere for a T20 match!

Get to Scarborough Festival. If the weather's good, the atmosphere in Scarbados is all tops

Some of the small outgrounds are nice.  Went to a CB40 between Surrey and Sussex at Arundel Castle the other year.  Very nice.

You have got to get yourself to New Road, beautiful ground.

I've heard the Arundel ground is quality. Might have to make the trip there this season

Sounds like a plan for a daytrip to me pal!  Especially if there's any fixtures with Surrey on the go!
