Can anyone recommend an easy access non motorway petrol station near the ferry port? Would prefer a straight drive through rather than one where you face the kiosk.

There's a petrol station a stone's throw from the roundabout that the ferry terminal is off. Though perhaps not the easiest to use with a caravan in tow.

Many years ago I managed to coast to it as I set off from Whale Island & promptly ran out.

As MM says if you stay on the Motorway into Portsmouth you will see the Shell station on the right, go to next roundabout and back on yourself, Kiosk is to the left, so a drive through possible, then you are on the slip road straight into ferry port very easy.

Thanks. Last time we went I missed the entrance to a petrol station and ended up in a single track cul de sac. Quite challenging !!! Not the way to start a relaxing holiday.Going this Sunday via M25 and M3. Never Know what time to leave to allow for any hold ups or not have to sit too long at the port.

I wonder if the picture posted by Steve is the Hamble Tesco? If so it does have easy access through the station if you get to the right pumps. Is it no longer cheaper to fill up with diesel in France?

I think that's off the M27 at junction 8 David. The one pictured is near the start of the motorway spur down to the ferry terminal, junction 12.

If you search Shell Petrol Portsmouth look for the station named Four Square its very close to terminal. There is a google map showing its location you need to go south along Mile End Road around the roundabout and north again up Mile End Road, Mile End road is a dual carriageway station is directly off.  The one negative point you can get quite a long queue going into Portsmouth at some times of the day but as long as its not last minute you shouldn't have a problem.
