Ive booked a few Butlins holidays through the Sun and never been offered caravans before. Very strange.

Yes already booked, sat here in tears, devastated now spoiled my daughters first holiday by the sounds of it!!

Please dont cry, its a lovely place with a smashing beach. (Yes we have been to this site) Are you going by car? If so you will be spoilt for choice.

So the site might be a bit run down, your kiddies wont care, all they want is a beach, a bucket and spade and they will be happy.

I wouldnt cancel if it was me.

Go and enjoy, then come back and tell us all about it xx

ive been told the caravans are very nice so thats not a problem,but its this bit where the self catering is the same price as half board thats confusing me!!!

we went to butlins skeggy last year, it was all chalets! The only caravans were over the road and they were private ones (my friend has one on there).

The normal price is for self catering same as most holiday parks,but you can pay half board if you like. The half board thing was seperate to the usual upgrades though, we upgraded to silver which was fine. A bit dated i suppose but fine enough! Fantastic place for the kids though, just very very busy! If anyone well known is on in the club people are queueing outside from about 4pm lol! :rotfl:
