Gulf

Always stop here on a long cycle ride to refuel. Great deli, reasonable coffee and well stocked shop. However, I always prepare myself for the ignorant miserable man serving. Didn't disappoint today, clearly hates cyclists despite always being polite.

AVOID- DONT TRUST DIESEL HERE. My Sprinter Motorhome was nearly empty, price was good and cheaper than many I'd seen in the area so I filled it right up. Too good to be true. Halfway back to Durham on the Motorway the engine warning light came on. 2 months, a respected local garage, an Auto-electronics diagnostics specialist and a Mercedes garage later (you can guess the cost of this diagnostic alone is in the thousands) Today Mercedes has confirmed the "2268 [1] LIN bus - Error on transmitting a LIN message" code and DPF failure is due to 'water in the fuel', tank and lines checked for any other way for water to get in and no issues found, must have been from the pump, THANKS GULF RICHMOND. -100 stars

Not many Gulf petrol stations by me down south. But nice quaint old fashioned village petrol station that has been modernised. Shop was clean inside and didn't have to wait too long to be served, as it is also a local village convenience store. Sadly 3 stars given due to their fuel giving me 6 mpg less than other leading fuel suppliers.

Whilst the garage was a great garage when it was open. It is currently closed due to a fire. The place has been completed demolished and is being rebuilt as a Morrisons garage. Please do not visit this site for fuel!!!

I'm giving this services 5 stars simply because the staff are friendly and helpful, also the fuel is very competitively priced. However the site must be due a major upgrade shortly
