There is a little snack bar along the road with possibility to talk to people or the space for a potential car to pull aside (there is also a bus stop between that spot and the roundabout but the visibility is low)―Anonymous

If you are going far north , get out at Sedgemoor services and NOT at Bristol junctions - Jn 22 /21/19/18/16 . Or get out at Michaelwood services before Gloucester―Colinc
