Presumably you are travelling M5/A30. If that is the case and you want to avoid the Motorway Services then the next stop is Sourton Cross just west of Okehampton. There is a Little Chef there. Come to think of it there is also a stop just before reaching Okey. A BP (I think) service station and adjacent restuarant.

hi

i suppose it depends on your route into St Aaustell, there a big asda in st Austell itself, lots of independents in towns and villages on the way through, it just depends on the time

if you are on the a38 theres a morrisons just after quntrell downs, (outside of Newquay) theres a great road connection between quintrell downs and st austell

hope it goes well, good luck

Agree.  There is a restaurant, the services are at Belstone and on the East direction of the A30, so on the right side of the road.  They do fabulous pasties in the BP garage.  Plenty of parking and a little picnic area if it's sunny.

Agree with this one,there are a few overnight bays for caravans too but it is quite noisy as you get cars calling all night to use the toilets.
