Welcome Break Corley Southbound Services M6 — Local services in North Warwickshire

Corley services is a motorway service station between junctions 3 and 3A of the M6 motorway in the county of Warwickshire, England. It is close to the village of Corley, with the nearest city being Coventry several miles to the south, with Birmingham being situated slightly further to the west. A footbridge, made of concrete but now clad in green fibreglass panelling, spans the motorway to link services on both sides. Corley was opened in 1972 (a year after the section of motorway it serves) and was originally operated by Forte.

There’s a hotel, but you have to cross the bridge together there.

It’s got one of those dual Breakfast/Chopstix places. Harry...
