Ilfracombe break

[Mobilvetta]

Hi all, hope everyone is looking forward to getting back on the road, we certainly are and have booked a caravan site near Ilfracombe for a week from the 12th July.

We are traveling from Blackpool and are towing our jetski so will have to keep the speed down, I estimate it to be a 6 to 7 hour drive if we did it in one hit.

Because we are taking out two young grandchildren with us, it would be better to break the journey up, staying somewhere overnight close to the M5.

I have noticed a Toby pub in Brockworth, so not to much of a diversion from the M5, does anyone know if you have a meal there whether you can stay overnight, like you can at the one at Coventry, or has anyone got any better recommendations, it will be a Saturday night that we need to stay over, so the carpark might be a bit busier than a midweek night this could be a problem.

This is a great stop, if it's open.

Thanks to the both of you for the recommendation, just looked at Fromebridge Mill website, it is reopening on the 6th July, shall have to give it a try. Looks an ideal place and not far from the M5. Seems you have to download an app in order to get food and drink.
