We are going to Europe in August ( Germany , France and Belgium) and getting the ferry at 4 am on the way out and 8pm on the way back . Last year we stopped at services near Folkestone that allowed caravans overnight for about £20 I think . Has anyone else done this - any problems ? Also is there a website somewhere that lists services that have overnight facilities ?
Thanks all

We have used The Drum Inn a couple of times - very peaceful and very convenient for the tunnel and ferries.

If you are coming from Swansea you will be going M26-M20 so you have services just past Maidstone at J8 with caravan spaces & services just before Eurotunnel at J11, both charge £20 for car/caravan parking over 2hrs.

If you are getting 4am ferry you will need to aim to be on dock by 3am so not so much as overnight as evening so probably services your best bet & those are the only 2 on M20.
