Rest stops

Please  let  us  know  how  you  get  on,  PJK  --  we  are  always  interested  in  how  "Newbies"  get  along  as  well  as  what  they  think  of  the  advice  given 

M54 services are tight and often full. If you carry on the A5 just the other side of Shrewsbury there is very large picnic area with loos and cafe. Probably a better bet than Telford services. As you approach Oswestry there are services at the island with caravan bays. It can be very difficult to pull out there. As you approach Chirk there is a services on the right with space for lorries. Cafe and M and S food. After that it is laybys only. If you use the A55,  further but much easier, there is a services just after the big left hand bend on Deeside. Parking is possible but can be difficult unless you can reverse. (To do this go to Costa/Subway and there are 2 big bays. Don't do this if you aren't good at reversing.)  The A55 has lots of laybys and some have butty wagons. All other services are no HGV which means might not be good for caravans. Enjoy Wales.
