Beaconsfield named one of the best service stations AGAIN

Dozens of polls have always confirmed what those who have visited Beaconsfield Service Station already knew - and the latest research, which analysed Google reviews, is no different.

According to PlumbNation's research, Beaconsfield, which is at junction 2 of the M40, is second in the UK, only behind Cobham services on the M25. Both stations are operated by Extra.

The research looked at all of the amenities service stations offered and how clean they were.

Elsewhere in the top 10 was Cherwell Valley, also on the M40, in joint third place, Reading westbound (M3-M4) in eighth place and Leigh Delamere westbound, also on the M4, in sixth.

Barton Park on the A1M was given the worst score out of 10, with just 2.37 overall and only 3.1 from Google reviews.
