    That's nearly Autumn! Think I'll give it a miss.

    Hi, I got my bonus token through the post this morning, with a little booklet listing all the parks. Fortunately for us, we are already planning to go to Butlins Minehead in September as 2 of my boys get their birthday then, and it is on the list, so will hopefully get it a lot cheaper through the Sun promotion. Has anyone booked to stay here through the Sun before? What is the 'entertainment plus pass' for, and how would they enforce this? Having been to Butlins Skegness a few times (booked direct with Butlins) we have never had to carry a pass card/wrist band to get into certain places on the park, so, if I manage to secure a place in Butlins Minehead in September, could I choose not to buy the entertainment plus passes and still have access to all the facilities/entertainments? Thanks in advance.


    I asked 2 years ago and Butlins told me there aren't any passes to carry around, but you must buy them to get a sun holiday there.

    You could try asking them to remove the passes though, let us know :D

    Last year we chose southsea holiday park which charged MORE than butlins for passes, yet there was nothing at all there! There wasn't the advertised swimming pool, or even the advertised shop! There was a pub, and when I complained about the cost of the passes they told me that we had to pay in case we used the park outside the pub :rotfl:

    Hi guys

    I haven't received an email or anything in the post and we have done a few of these (usually one a year - most recently in June).

    Can I contact the paper and ask them to send me a priority code?

    I've been to Bognor 3/4 times and have only needed the pass when going to the evening shows like lazytown/braniac etc in Centre Stage, i assume its the same in the rest of the evening entertainment

    If you dont plan to go to the shows then you may not need them

    I know last year someone posted a phone number for the Sun to request a priority code if you hadn't been sent one but thought you should have, I used it and got one but can't find the thread!

    I have just called it but they can't allocate the code until next week, but definately the right number to call!

    Are we going to do the code breaking for the last token as we did for the Sun holidays earlier this year?
