As families take to the roads for their summer holidays, experts have revealed the worst service stations to visit when travelling with kids.
The study, conducted by electric vehicle leasing company DriveElectric, looked at the number of playgrounds and restaurants at each service station in the UK to determine the stations you should avoid when driving to your summer destinations.
Todhills Service Station in Cumbria was rated as one of the least family-friendly service stations in the UK.
Hearthill Services in North Lanarkshire, Scotland, are the least family-friendly services in the UK. With just one eatery, and no children’s play area, the service station earns a score of 0/10.
In joint second place are two service stations. Bothwell (southbound) in Bothwell and Severn View in Bristol both score just 0.06/10 for family-friendliness. The two service stations have three eateries and no children’s play areas.
