Butlins - Skegness

[SimonMac]

Now I wish this was a parody thread, but anyone been there, moving the kids up to Yorkshire at Easter () so thinking of a week away rather than the usual summer holiday abroad?

Yes, 22 years ago. Haven't been again; enough said.

Haven't been there, but I always keep an eye on Scooterscot - Member Reviews - TripAdvisor for reviews of quality leisure destinations.

Oh, and YACNCOTBAC.

Of course i've never been. The coffee bird in clientco's canteen went last year iirc. Shall I ask her views?

Also, even on mumsnet they ask that question with a suitable sense of shame

Butlins is good fun for the kids. Bognor is the best. And don't forget you get money off with Tesco vouchers!

The whole place was crawling with fat slappers from Liverpool on hen parties.
Skegness itself is an utter hole. It chucked it down the whole time, and in Skeggy that means it blows straight
in off the North Sea, which ensures it feels about minus ten outside.

And on the last day when we were packing up to go, one of the guys in the group found a pair
of heavily skidmarked underpants beneath the mattress he'd been sleeping on for the previous two nights.
They were not his

I went to the Bognor Butlins for a day trip last Summer. The indoor water park is all run down. Apart from that there is ***** all except a big tent where massively overweight smoking mums hang out
