Services at A50/A38 Junction Near Derby? - Rhubarb
Hi folks.

I used the A50 from Stoke to the M1 today and as I passed the A38 Junction near the Toyota factory I was certain I noticed signs for services with the entrance fed off the roundabout for the A50/A38 junction. I've checked several mapping and aerial picture sites as well as carrying out a bit of Googling and cannot find any reference to services there. Can anyone confirm these services exist and, if so, are they open?

Cheers Andy

Thanks! I was beginning to think I was going mad. I was looking for somewhere about midway between North East Wales and Peterborough with loos and refreshments to meet my Sister and swap over a precious cargo - my dear old Mum. I'll make sure I fill up before I leave this end!

Thanks again - Andy

There's a coffee shop, and a KFC in there too. I think there are more food facilities being built/finished at the moment.

IIRC there is a fuel station/smallish services about half a mile south of the junction on the A38 s'bound, at Willington.
I believe its situated on a junction so presumably one could nip over the top and back up the 38 to rejoin.

Don't shoot if i'm wrong by the way, it won't be the first etc..;)

There is also a garden centre just off the A38 (about 200 yards off the roundabout) on the way into Findern about a mile north of the A38/A50 junction with a decent cafe as well. Access to A38 north and south - would go there in preference to the services anyday.

Quite busy Sunday lunchtimes.

Last time I was past the services were not quite open
