Best motorway services based on EV charging, fuel prices, restaurants and dog walking

The saviour of many a long journey, motorway services have gone from a convenient pit stop for a toilet break to, in some cases at least, a genuinely desirable place to stop and have some time out. Used car buying service ChooseMyCar.com has put together a list of the UK’s best as many of us prepare to hit the road during the summer.

Using a criteria of various attractive elements, such as availability of electric vehicle charging points, price of fuel, variety of restaurants and whether dog walking is available, it has ranked the UK’s service stations. Coming out on top was Beaconsfield Motorway Services, located off the M40 in Buckinghamshire.

It said Beaconsfield had "an astonishing array of restaurants and coffee shops, with 16 in total, including all the usual favourites such as Starbucks, McDonald's and Nando's. It also has dog walking, a good amount of EV chargers and two hours of free parking".
