Mad Cow Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Hi, Long time since I have been on the Forum and pleased to be back. We are travelling from Hertford to Thornton Cleveleys on Friday and am not sure if we will make it all the way so are looking for some good stopovers on the way - probably M6 ish. Ideally need to be near a pub for some food but not essential. We are 8.9m Concorde so it needs to be roomy. Any ideas please? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowtelse2do Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Charnock Richards Services south of Preston, Overnight parking (Lorry Park) is about £20-£22 with I think about £6 meal voucher. Don't know why you think you won't make it, it's only about a 5hr run if that. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyhb Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 "ips" has a CL up that way close to the M6, I suggest you send him a "PM" . Photo of Ian's CL on this thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Cow Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 That's got to be the poshest stopover I've ever seen! Think it might be too near as we might just as we'll push on if we get that far but certainly one to keep for the future. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_C Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Not sure it qualifies as 'good', but if you don't mind parking with the trucks, motorhomes are accepted overnight at the Doxey Road lorry & coach park at Stafford: 52.809659,-2.124364 Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Cow Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 We found a great Caravan Club CL at a pub with marvellous food called The Black Lake Inn at Hilderstone, Staffs. 2 acre site with hook ups. Lovely helpful people. £10 for the night. Definitely worth a stopover if you are in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
