Castlereagh Park has been home to Ards since 1923 and like most other Irish League grounds has been neglected facility wise for many years. As Ards are due to depart the ground in the foreseeable future for a new stadium close by, certain aspects of the ground are as they once were, however with no perimeter fencing or floodlights, viewing is unrestricted in most parts of the ground.
The home supporters obviously have the better deal in terms of view from the ground's only stand, seating just over 500. For any away fans limited covering is provided on the opposite side of the ground. Hot food and toilets are provided at both ends of the stadium, though there is no longer a social club at the ground. For a small fee, parking is available in the club car park and use of this is advisable, as the roadside is often kept clear of parked traffic.
