Hi, used to use Citi Europe all the time but that is no.longer an option.

Aire de camping-car Calais seems a great development but does not allow towing cars.

Any other stops close for eurotunnel?

Gravellines is good but only a few spaces long enough for a 7.5m motorhome and 5m trailer.

Any thoughts welcome.

There's a free Aire at Nouvion that has space for a trailer, if that's not too far. There's a Carrefour a boulangerie and a bar all next door in one direction or another.

We normally use this aire near Gravelines at the rowing Center itā€™s quiet no facilities we have 7.5m + 4.5 m car trailer and you can park up fine donā€™t go on the grass with your drive wheels though especially if itā€™s wet. Itā€™s about 20 mins from tunnel

I've stopped at Gravelines a couple of times in a 8mt MH towing a car on a trailer.
Plenty of room for even bigger.
Unless you are "must get as close to the water type".

If you have park4night you'll find this great spot, I've been parking here for over 15 years with all sizes of vans and trailers i created it for park4night last year to share with others (after I had bought a small van! The orange van in the 1st pic) šŸ˜‚
