If you are in Yorkshire, why not consider Scarborough or Bridlington. There are various Haven Holiday Parks (so it bit like Butlins) in the area.

FTFY as in the OP its clear that the children are moving up to Yorkshire....

Get your arse over to Pontins Camber Sands for a themed weekend, I quite fancy one: Themed Weekend Breaks | Short Holidays | Weekends Away | Pontins or go to Butlins Minehead for the Giants of Rock weekend with Hawkwind, Uriah Heep, Blue Öyster Cult, etc... Giants Of Rock 2014 with Sweet, Big Country, Uriah Heep, Hawkwind, and more (or there's another one with Dr. Feelgood, Damned, Bad Manners or the one with Madness)

Haven't read it all yet, but this article may be interesting ..

Butlin's is no longer the last resort

You go to Butlins for the kids, do you? Why are we not surprised?

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

I'd want them to give me money to go there. Benefit Street on Sea!

[gingerjedi]

I'm not that keen (Minehead) but the kids love it so Mrs GJ insists on going once in a while, my only advice is get a gold apartment as the others are grotty at best.

The whole place was crawling with fat slappers from Liverpool on hen parties.

That's why I haven't been back in 22 years. She looked like Sharon Stone in the evening, honest guv.

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

Jeez. If I wanted that, I'd hang out here: CUK-on-sea

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

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