Have you thought of upgrading to silver, the standard are pretty crappy. With standard you'll get a 2 bedroom for 4 people, 5 or more and you'll get a 3 bedroom.

You could also try and upgrade on the day to Gold which are 2 or 3 bedroom.

hi thanks for reply i have upgraded to silver although i have removed linen, as thought that silver apartments come with linen but have been reading up not sure if it does lol i suppose can always add at later date.

i'm sure silver comes with bedding

Yes, silver comes with linen, we always stay silver or gold. You'll get a 2 bed apartment then. Gold comes with towels being the main difference tbh. They say it is better but the only difference is being able to park outside, having a maid and towels. Why did you take away linen?

yes with silver you will get a 2 bedroom apartment, we got butlins holiday at bognor thru the sun, and upgraded to silver as the mrs was pregnant and we did not feel like sleeping on a sofa bed for a week, as we extended as well

just checked and as there are 2 adults 4 children it says upgraded to silver 3 bed, but i know silver comes with bedding if you book directly with butlins but if its with the sun holiday i think they still expect you to pay £11 for bedding.

Ah, I assumed you was 4 - yes then, it would be a 3 bed. I don't think we paid for bedding to be honest, the beds are made up when you get there. They would not know which guests were Sun guests so the beds would be made. In silver there is no bedding but you can order it.

What does your confirmation say?

As I say though you can upgrade to gold fo £50 but they will tell you on the phone you can't. When you arrive, anytime from 1pm, go to the Gold check in office (not the actual check in desk but there is somewhere that Gold Guests can go to hire dvd's ect..) and see if they have any upgrades, we got upgraded for £50. Always worth a try.

my confirmation says 3 bed atlantic bay,accomadation £57, service charge £33.80, silver upgrade £84.00, summer supplement £33.00, linen was £11.50 till i removed it and £72.00 entertainment passes, do you think i should leave the linen removed and chance the beds being made i gues i can always ask for linen when i arrive if there not made up.

blue_monkey_2

Yes, I would to be honest. Or take them in a seperate bag in case you need them. As I say, we have stayed in Silver and Gold and there has always been bed linen on the beds. Are you going to Minehead? That is where we are going and I have requested Atlantic Bay there.

no were going to bognor when you went did you go through the sun holidays
