Fulham is the oldest of London’s first class clubs and started life as a church side. In 1896 when the first game was played at Craven Cottage, the symbiotic relationship between club and ground was forged. More than almost any other club, Fulham has become synonymous with its home, and the battle to stay there has been a dominant feature of club affairs on numerous occasions during Fulham’s history. From the stunning Grade II listed newly named Johnny Hayes stand (formerly Stevenage Road Stand) to the riverside views, this has to be one of the most beautiful stadiums in football.
The tour is a must for all Fulham fans, with the opportunity to go behind the scenes, visiting the dressing rooms, dug outs, the cottage balcony, corporate hospitality areas and press facilities. The ground has a history stemming back to the late 1700s and there are fascinating facts and stories in every area. After your tour, sit down to a delicious three-course lunch served in the George Cohen restaurant.
