Moto Southwaite Northbound in Eden

Thank you for doing what you’re doing.

A place to call in instead of going teebay

Not that clean and the smell of urine is over powering

Great service station. It has everything you need when travelling.

Brilliant motorway stop & very clean toilets

Excellent place to stop you can have a variety of take-outs to eat

This service station is north of the wonderful and expensive Tebay services. This service station is good because the toilets are clean and it has a Greggs and a M & S shop. These shops are more affordable than others. If you just want a cheaper tea or coffee and a snack then come here rather than Tebay. I like Tebay, but struggle with the prices.

I visited North Burger King for my lunch on the way to work, Joe, Kasia and Rachel were really helpful and chatty. Joe was very lovely and helped me use the kiosk to place my order. I visit southwaite a lot due to travel for work and it never disappoints

Best place to stop on M6 alway a target services

Urinals had heavy urine smell and were not clean, dry urine and pubic hair in urinals. Soap dispensers either didn’t work properly or didn’t have soap. Bottle soap was provided. At least two water taps were not working and the one that did, did not have a good flow rate. Dryers were good though.

Small but functional. Car park nit confusing

Clean, well stocked, friendly staff.

Quick break on the way to Scotland. Greggs was good, as usual.

Tables are disgusting!! Found it hard to find a table to sit at to eat our burgers and it's fairly quiet ???

Pretty standard motorway services, notable points being very expensive fuel, good Cornish pasties, disabled parking being taken over by electric vehicle charging points, well kept toilets. Update 30th December 2024 ... called in again while on my way home ... I wondered why are there so few disabled parking spaces to begin with, and why the electric charging spaces are in the 'prime locations' where some of the disabled spaces used to be. Pretty poor, really.

Terrible place, dirt everywhere, food and garbage on the floor. The tables haven't been wiped, I don't know since when. I haven't seen such a dirty place for a long time. Although KFC's dishes are tasty, I recommend eating them at home.

Came here for years. One day I was there for a couple of hours (spending money there) and next thing I know I get a letter demanding 170 quid. Bailiffs, threats, third party interlopers trying to muscle-in on any bounty and add a few more quid to the sums mentioned. It absolutely stinks. I'll never go to this place again and I opt for Welcome Break etc if possible. Years of custom, 170 quid extortion attempts. That's what MOTO really thinks of you.

Toilet flushes when your sat on and ruins everything

My favourite services on m6 north always happy staff here

Well run and very tidy place , toilets well cleaned and plenty of eatery choices

Just a stop over for a toilet break

The last motorway services in England when travelling North on the M6.

Great stop to pick up supplies and petrol

Popped in for a quite bite to eat when heading up to Scotland. No complaints!

Place needs a make over. Grubby

Services in general were ok. The lady assistant in Greggs was rather rude and offhand to myself and another customer. Not like Greggs staff at all.

Usually stop off for a brew if we are visiting gretna.

Called off here on Monday 11th November on our way to Northumbria. The disabled facility is super, we were able to park in a disabled bay a short distance from a totally disabled toilet situated next to the parking bays. It was superbly equipped with everything needed including a full hoist as well as a wheelchair accessible toilet. The facility was extremely clean and well maintained. Well done Moto

Costa staff were amazing on our stop off for coffee. Good facilities and good atmosphere

Female toilets absolutely disgusting. A visit at 10:20 on a Saturday morning & from approximately 20 toilets none of them were clean all in an awful state, I have seen toilets in a night club at 3am in a better state. Avoid!

Good place to stop for a comfort break and coffee

just a quick burger stop , tasty enough

Great service, genuine people. Services kept clean and in a good condition.

Not the best service stop avoid!

Nice services was very quiet. Toilets were clean and well kept. Good options to get food and refreshments.

Unlike nearby services we stopped here and didn't queue for anything. Lovely sausage barm and coffee ..loo break and on our way .nice place

Quick stop to gas up and use restroom

Parking was good, although several vehicles went around the carpark looking for the exit. Burger King food was very poor, although the cornish pasty was a little better. I would not recommend either. Hopefully, the other outlets are better.

Complicated and dangerous road layout

Most run down dirty services I have been too. Sock on the floor dirty floors. The windows you could not see out of as they were that filthy.

The tables are always covered in rubbish, bins overflowing. Paying a premium to eat in conditions that aren't great.

Absolutely disgusting!! Baby changing facilities look like they've NEVER been cleaned, nappy bin overflowing nappies all over the floor, VERY dirty, unhygienic and the smell was atrocious.

Moto Southwaite M6 Northbound Services is a reasonably priced, reasonably clean, and reasonably cheerful. At time of writing, the northbound station featured WH Smith, Burger King, Greggs and an outdoor West Cornwall Cornish Pasty stall. The toilets are reasonably well looked after and I noticed that there are options for showers. The car park includes some charge points for EV chargers. It is possible to cross to the Southbound services for a change of scene by way of a pedestrian flyover. For what it is, there is no reason to award the station 5 stars because for what it is, it does what is is bid to do.

Great for when you're going north, burger king is good. Everything is overpriced to death (as per the service station rules). Not so handy If you're going south.

We were served by Kiril who was so lovely and polite, I'm autistic and struggled to use the order panel so he let me order at the till. He showed me great patience and was wonderful, honestly 5 star service from him!

Warm, places to sit , food choices, free food voucher hahaha and internet

Review of burger king. Big queues for kiosk. It didnt accept app codes despite having the feature, it said to see front desk to redeem. So cancelled order and queued for the front desk, only to have them say they don't accept codes when I got there. Waste of time, staff member was rude. Avoid and go elsewhere

Great place to stop for a break

I was in the northbound side of the services at night and met a very helpful staff member in the Costa that was happy to help and would like to say a big thank you , didn't catch a name but a big thank you!! 👻

Excellent bacon butty and latte at Greg's. Always stop when passing. Also excellent disabled toilet and facilities. One of the best we've come across on our travels.

Absolutely disgusting toilets you lot should be ashamed

Yup, a good place to stop, no worries.

Ladies toilets all backed up on the right. Toilets on left all doors locked. Soap dispensers near empty and one hand dryer didn’t work properly.

Normal motorway services etc high prices only issue that the male toilets were filthy and rubbish on the floor, this was in the evening and overnight.

It's a service station. Loos were clean. The usual overpriced amenities. We spent a penny but otherwise did not waste any!

Called in to trial there ev charging facilities. Pointless majority not working. You wouldn't expect petrol/diesel drivers to accept the majority of pumps not to working. Seriously need to up your standards.

Good little service station. Plenty of seating & away from open doors & drafts. Electric car charging upgraded recently.

Moto Southwaite Northbound is a great place to take a break on a long journey. The service station is clean, well-organized, and offers a good variety of food and drink options to suit different preferences. The staff is friendly and efficient, making the stop even more pleasant. It’s also well-stocked with travel essentials if you need to grab something for the road. A very convenient and comfortable stop for anyone traveling northbound!

Lack of disabled parking, 3 bays to be exact whilst there are loads of electric charging spaces now near the entrance. Disabled bays should take priority, it is thoughtless to install chargers where there should be disabled bays

Rats running around the car park

Usual services, expensive and getting tired, needs money spending on it.

It was very busy, we stopped off for some food and drinks. The service was good and relatively fast. The toilets were clean, with hot water and soap supplies available. Not bad at all. Been to better ones but needs must.

Quite quiet Cornish pasty hut shut but still plenty of other scran to be had

Obviously poor signage into car park, proven by the fact that about a dozen cars, including me, missed the main car park and ended up in the truck stop.

Your usual motorway service station

Nice services on the M6 Northbound below Carlisle. Usual choice of eateries Burger King, KFC, Pret A Manger, Cornish Pasty Co and Greggs as well as a M&S and WH Smith’s. Seating out front and plenty of grass around the outside of the car park to walk your four legged friends. Well worth a stop off on the way to Scotland.

Stopped to use the facilities and take a break. Disabled toilet was spotless.

not a very nice place dirty is not the word

Such a poor dirty services, lots of units from the high street all at rip off britan prices on steriods!! Also the food offering area is disgusting unclean area. The reply suggests i said toilets were unclean but thats incorrect i was referring to the tables chairs and floor of earing area.

A standard motorway service area

Was ok a few of the usual shops and toilets.

A great pit stop on our journey north from the South coast of England

Not and clean services with lots of choice.

Good services, with food options

Easily one of the dirtiest places on earth. Car park stinks of urine from those who can’t be bothered to walk to the stinking toilets.

Was a great stop off for food and drinks and to let the dog walk about .

Has everything in one place. Great service station. If you miss them turn off fir cars n end up in the lorry and campervan park as we did, just turn at the petrol station and go back up but be careful as some cars coming out think it's a one way system and take up both lanes

Another disfunction Al and worn out MOTO service area. Becoming more and more obvious with MOTO Service areas that they lack investment. Where else do you when you need petrol or a break????

Good little stop of the moterway. There is plenty of parking and good choices for food. Ideal place to stop and stretch your legs.

Toilets disgusting, tables dirty bins overflowing....

One of the best and prolonged pees, I’ve done in a long time.

Horrible horrible horrible.. Dirty every square meter of that place. More cleanless you can expect in any African country. Most of the motorway stops look similarly bad but this one is really EXEPTIONAL🤮🤯😵 see photos of dining area of Burger King and KFC but most SHOCKING are toilets HORROR

Very busy, very untidy. Only 2 cubicles available in gents toilet. Will not stop here again.

Stop at night on way to Scotland to grab a Costa very friendly lady serving great smile and service

Lots of parking and clean toilets.

Overpriced as eveey motorway swrvice station is absolute robbery

Clean toilets when I visited but car park signs are confusing.

Decent place for a scoff stop 👍🏻

A great spot for a quick break on the M6! The service station offers electric car charging, clean toilets, and a good range of food options including Costa Coffee, Burger King, Greggs, and M&S Simply Food. There's plenty of parking available, making it easy to find a spot even on busy days. Overall, a convenient and well-maintained stop.

Not impressed with these services at all. Enough said!

Never anything working burger king cold drink dispenser not working and surprisingly it's sunny and the ice cream dispenser also not working, got to be one off the worst service stations . And the KFC is always Closed at 20.50 in the evening unbelievable.

This is our regular stopping place enroute home from East Yorkshire- we stopped around 8pm - and I was dismayed to discover the messiest and most disgusting service station toilets I have ever experienced. Every cubicle I opened had over flowing sanitary bins, with toilet paper, crisp packets, paper cups, plastic water bottles and much worse strewn everywhere! They looked as though they hadn’t been cleaned all day. Management at this service station should be ashamed of themselves for allowing the toilets to get this bad. Just awful.

The baby changing room was absolutely disgusting that I instead changed my baby in the car in the cold. Bins we overflowing with nappies and poo on the bit where the baby lies down. Toilet was also a disgrace. For the prices this place charges for food/drink then they least they could do is use some of that money to hire enough staff to clean the place properly. Never in my life have I ever witnessed anything this bad. I will never stop here again. "Edit". I stopped here again, 6 months on from my last visit and things are considerably worse than before. I have attached a picture of the state of the baby changing facilities.

Somewhere to take a break, clean toilets, plenty of food and drink options.

Good services with clean toilets and a variety of food. Also has a Greggs outside - although sadly they rarely ever have vegan sausage rolls.

Sitting in burger king at moment which is absolutely filthy. The window ledges a disgrace and rubbish all over floor. Just seen a rat pass window.

Easy to access in and out of. Very clean toilets. Average price fuel. Would stop again.

Clean and efficient staff. Ample parking

Only stopped for toilet stop. Some needed clearing as backed up but no staff present

The place to stop on your way to/from Scotland without a detour to Gretna ..
