Hi, I'm traveling from Coventry to Pickering and was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a good motorway stop with a van?

Be doing M69, M1

TIA

Depends how far you like to travel without stopping.

Its under 3 hours and barring any toilet stops i wouldnt normally need to stop on a journey that length.

Seveal services on the M1 to choose from.

Leicester Forest East on your doorstep.

Donington

Trowell

Tibshelf

Truckstops at 29 and 31 also and probably more.

It's not signed as a motorway services but immediately off Junction 29A (between Sheffield and Chesterfield) there's a recently-opened complex which includes a big petrol station, Spar mini-supermarket, Greggs, Subway and (I think) McDonalds and Starbucks that both offer sit-in or drive-thru.

All of the other services on that stretch of the M1 are the 'traditional' Moto, Roadchef etc with nothing really to choose between any of them.
