Junction 26

There are roundabouts on each side of the motorway. On the clockwise side is a Mariott hotel. Between the two is a truck stop.

On the anti-clockwise side take the A121 towards Epping. This takes you to the edge of Epping Forest. The Woodbine public house on the left offers food while the former Volunteer opposite is now an Italian restaurant.

On the very edge of the forest there is a parking an picnic area which is a good place to let children run off some steam.
