Wow - thanks so much for all your input. It looks like it will be better to stay in the harbour as you say. When we do take off in the morning, we will be heading north, so I do not think that heading south to an Aire will be an option. Thanks again everyone. It is much appreciated.

Now I am spoilt for choice, but thanks everyone,having just found this thread.

I was wondering where to get some shut eye arriving off the ferry at about 3am on a Sunday next June.

Didn't want to drive on in the dark on a new route.

Our little Caravelle will fit in most places.

[There was a posting recently that suggested that there is now a proper MH parking at City Europe that now allows overnight parking. Want to try that next time. I believe that it is next to the Coach Park and that they have removed a height barrier from the next car park.



Has anybody actually stayed overnight at the City of Europe as suggested in this thread?

Hi,

We parked in the new area of the car park on Monday this week, it isn't marked out for MH's just cars, there were 2 motor homes and 7 cars in there but there is plenty of room and you could easily tuck away along the side for the night.

Did look for signs saying you couldn't over night but not visible. We didn't stay the night as we always stay at Cap Nez as we did on Sunday (had the whole place to ourselves), just did some shopping and caught the tunnel.

Thanks. As it will be our first stop in France, we will be loaded, but as it's the chance to get some kip before we strike south for Italy, I don't think shopping will be on the menu.

hi We used the new M/H area at Cite Europe in late Jan, only for shopping I might add, couldn't see any signs prohibiting overnighting and as the tunnel police are next door I thought it would be a good place.

Just stayed in the Sans Billet area last saturday.

There were about 10 other m/hs in there when we arrived at 3am.

Had a good sleep and left the next morning.
