If you don't want to travel far from Calais, Bruges might be an option worth considering, particularly around New Year. Otherwise trundle through the Somme if you are into history. If you head south into Normandy avoid the toll roads and meander through the villages - good wilding possibilities abound although many villages offer water, grey water dumps and even hook-ups. If you have not booked a return ticket on the ferry, check out the Dieppe - Newhaven run (LDlines). It will save you backtracking and is very cheap.
