  • It said booking opened tomorrow but by chance I logged on tonight and now everywhere has already been booked for the dates/parks we want :(


    I logged on just after 7pm last night. I had 5 parks in mind looking at specific dates (all school holidays). None were available sadly - 1 did include Butlins but others were normal Haven parks. So I guess that some parks have limited availability before onsale?

    Here are the supplements for Minehead... hope that helps.

    129 Minehead
    Service Charge £8.95 per unit per night
    Entertainment Plus Pass £9 per person per £9.50 break - £12 per person per £15 break - Passes FREE to Under 15s on £9.50 midweek breaks in March & October, HALF PRICE to Under 15s on all other £9.50 midweek breaks.

    HALF BOARD available at £13.50 per adult / £6.75 per child per day



    how does this work?
    I have just booked for skegness and it didnt mention entertainment etc, booked half board and it only cost me £60, is this right? should I need to be paying for passes etc? Is the skegness one Butlins?

    thanks for reading

    im persuming you picked a summer date and thats why it cost £60? the charge for the entertainment and service charge will be sent to you by the butlins. (yes the skegness one is butlins)

    All this sound about right, Butlins will invoice you at a later date with all the extras you need, service charge, passes ect.... Skegness is Butlins...

    Thank for replies :beer:
  • Will i get the confirmation from the holiday park right away? Or just to say payments been taken

    you should get the confirmation fairly soon after the payment, I expect it might be delayed due to unprecedented demand.

    If you are not limiting your campsites or dates you will be fine. Post it early, fill in form today, cut out token in morning and post, leave it a day or two and it may be more limited. I have over the years only be sent one cheque back, because I applied a week later and wanted all half term dates/easter. There will be more dates released, not just the ones online. You could at a push try the phoneline, telling them you didn't receive a reference number despite booking before, I know people have been successful before.
