Hi All,

Were off down to Dawlish tonight  

I've searched to see if i can find a services on the M5 that allows caravans to stop overnight but i can't find any infomation.

I'd be gratefull to anyone who can help?

Gordano services J19 might allow a long stay !!!!

Or Michael Wood services perhaps?

Alternatively you could come off of the M5 at junction 23 Puriton signposted Glastonbury etc and there are several massive laybyes - one on the right as you head up the hill signposted towards Glastonbury and one just at the bottom of the hill if you keep going up the hill and drop down the other side.  This one is next to the BIBIC brain injury centre.

Thats brilliant news!

Thankyou for your replies

try Taunton Deane services between junctions 25 and 26. inbetween Taunton and Wellington.

Nice services.

Have a great time.  The weather is lovely and warm down here at the moment

All the services on the M5 corridor offer overnight parking facilities for caravans, I don't know how much you have to pay but you'll probably find they'll all charge you after a maximum free period of parking.

An alternative between J12 & J14 would be to leave the M5, turn right at junction & go down to next junction, either a roundabout or a "T" junction at J14, turn left & keep going, you end up at J16 M5 where you can rejoin the motorway. There's a number of large laybys on this stretch of the A38 big enough to park an outfit or two in. Along with several garages & a couple of shop for fuel etc. There's a small services off ofJ12 & to the right with a macdonalds, theres a small services with a garage & used to have a little chef off of J13 & 1/4 mile to the left.
