Hi all. Will be travelling home after 3 1/2 weeks in France and due to the ferry times will not be able to get back in time to get caravan back to storage. Has anyone any suggestions as to where to stop over for one night, roughly half way or just a bit more. Will be using M1 M42 M6, Would like it not to be too far from motorway if at all possible.

Many thanks in anticipation..............

Whitegate Farm is not too far west along the A5 (though it's on the north side of the road, not as shown) from M6 Jn12.

There is Croxall Farm CS a bit further south, about 3 miles from J4 of the M6. There is alSo White Pump Farm on the A5 which must be near Whitegate Farm, or Berry Brook House near Wolverhampton.

About 12.30 lunchtime, storage closes at 7pm, cutting it a bit fine for me to do 320 miles at a safe speed......
