Err, the M5 runs fro West Bromich (I'n sure you will find some delightful spots there :twisted: ) all the way down to Exeter.

Where abouts off the M5? :?:

If you're carrying on South, you'd be better to get off at Junction 9 as there are loads of industrial estates and business parks just off J9. You can't get off the Motorway at J8 - you coudl pay to stop at the services

You have to go down the M50 then get off at Junction 1 to get there. Just to add you cannot get off the Motorway at J8. :)
