This Maxol/Spar filling station is the king of convenience. Right, I'll start off with the basics. It is obviously a petrol station with 6 pumps selling both diesel and unleaded petrol, it also has an air and water station ideal for pumping up tyres and filling up windscreen wiper spray (technical, I know!). There's also an ATM to the right of the shop on the forecourt.
But here's where it steps up a notch. I only found out recently that you can order items online to be delivered to this Maxol garage and then you can pick them up at your own convenience. Although be warned, when you go to pick your items up you'll have to jump through more hoops than a hula hooper at a circus!
The Spar shop also has a top up machine for pay as you go electricity and gas users and accepts card payments with no minimum spend. Other amenities include a large fruit and veg section and a coffee machine. Talk about an all rounder! read more
