Depending on where you are going in N.Norfolk, consider : M6-A14 continue to Newmarket then pick up A11 and then the B1065 to N. Norfolk. Once on the 1065 there are quite a few stopping places and a few are well off the road. Remember whatever route you take Lorry drivers prefer the larger lay byes.

why would you be going via kettering/peterbro? ok depending on where in Cheshire but an example of leaving chester to cromer would mean going via the a50/a453/a52/a17/a149/a148 being your best route in any case going any where near Norwich would mean you have gone well off route

Vic's route will avoid Norwich, The B1065 leaves the A11 at Barton Mills Roundabout, just a mile from where I live. Whichever way you will still be around Kettering at the same time. Not sure about laybys, but there is a small services at the A14/A605 junction. Looking at Google earth they appear top have about 5 caravan bays in the car park.

I wasn't being nosey asking where you live by the way. I drive down to Norfolk regularly - going again next month - and was just wondering if there might be an alternative route for you. I personally wouldn't go M6/A14, done it once and found it very tedious, but looking at the map book I can see you're not that far from the M6 anyway. It would seem that your own route or that suggested by The Vicar would be about the best, though I'm not really familiar with any lay-bys.

I would add that if you have not been to Deers Mead before then you are in for a treat. Its one of our favourites and we will be having a week there soon.

Your route is fine, it's the one we took. The A14/A605 junc has the little chef and good parking due to their beig a travel lodge too. Come off A14 slip road at Junc 13 & it's left straight into services then left again. When you are done, out of the services left onto A605.
