Aire at Eurotunnel Cite de europe? Anyone used?

Looking at stopping at the Cite d Europa aire next to eurotunnel in Calais.  

Has anyone used it?

Thanks

Paul

Used it last Wed, May 8th.
Stayed overnight, very quiet, about a dozen vans there.
TT satnav directed us to the wrong side of the fence, and there's no gate to open and go through, but we managed to follow our noses and found it.
I would suggest aiming for Cite Europe, and then picking up the camping car road signs for the aire.
There's a bit of construction work going on in the area which might explain the unexpected fencing.

We asked euro tunnel when booking and they said they had no parking.  Then saw it listed in all the aires book but with added info of make sure you have extra alarm and locks!  
Take it no services.

But presume you can nip in to the cite de europa for toilets etc?

We have witnessed the after effect of crime at cite Europe, to a car not a MH though. We got back to our van after collecting supplies from Carrefour at the same time as another couple who had parked next to us in the MH parking area. They had bikes on the back of their car locked onto a Thule bike rack - or rather they hadn't as both bikes had been stolen, the guy said they had only been away 30mins and he was distraught as apparently they were expensive bikes. We decided to move of to Sangatte Dunes

Where are you heading to when you reach the other side Paul?

You'll wonder why we didnt opt for the the ferry when i say we are off to Saint Pol De Leon to a site called Camping AR Klegeur. Just 20mins from the Roscoff ferry! 
Cost and times for getting back meant it was easier to do the long route. Plus a     free eurotunnel crossing, thanks to tesco points. 
Leaving UK at 1am so looking at driving all the way.  
On the way back looking at either stopping at the Cite de Europa or may be an aire on the way up say around Berck or Etaples. Depart France back to UK at 11am.

Totally understand we always travel from calais as this is all part & part of the trip & yes it does work out cheaper usually, you might want to stop here..

It's pretty much en route & about half hour or so from port/tunnel.
Hope this helps Paul.
