Going up to Scotland next week for a long weekns and I have to pick up my nephew. Is there anywhere he can leave his car for a long weekend near the M5 somewhere between say Droitwich and Halesowen? Hes coming from Kidderminster direction.

Mmm, if he's coming from Kiddie, last exit before the M5 on the A456 is Manor Lane - lots of residential round there, find somewhere out of the way and leave it there? 🙂

I'd go for a station carpark, usually with CCTV, eg droitwich spa is less than fourteen quid for the week.

A station car park is a good shout. There’s a huge one at Stourbridge Junction Station, off Rufford Road which would do the job. It’s free of charge too.

I personally would not want to leave my car overnight at the Rufford Rd car park, though I would be 'slightly' happier in the main stn car park. I quite like the Manor Ln idea up by junct 3, as I drive up Manor Abbey rd regularly, and it's a 'nice' area.

Hmm, the station car park might have restrictions on how long per day? Does a week pass mean a single week long stretch or just 7 lots of 8hrs or whatever?

I think you'd be fine, particularly if you parked at the end closest to the station. I run round it quite a lot in the evenings (it's flat and exactly 1k in diameter) and bar the odd learner driver at the far end there's rarely anyone there.
