It took quite a while to be shown to our accommodation on arrival, but I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room.

My friend and I had booked a twin room in standard Silver accommodation, however we were given an adjoining double room and twin room meaning we had 2 TV's and 2 bathrooms, 2 bedrooms between us. Presumably because the resort wasn't full.

It wasn't cleaned well though, and the towels were not changed once and the shower room was a hazard waiting to happen.

The food was utterly revolting. I'm a vegetarian and the food options were slim. My meat eating friend fared no better. I wish I'd gone self catering really. I ended up eating chips and salad, though even their chips tasted odd!

And the food and drinks were fairly pricey elsewhere.

Staff looked really quite unhappy, I felt sorry for them.

It was a bit boring really and not much to do. It was not quite what the brochure made out, and I would see no reason to return.

We stayed in Deluxe Half Board accommodation the apartment was of a high standard comprising of: - Lounge with 2 sofas 28" TV DVD & video also had 2 cabinets hiding fridge and ironing board/iron. One double bedroom - bed had canopy over very nice also second TV, and safe in wardrobe. Two twinned rooms all three bedrooms very comfy and well decorated. Nice bathroom with shower/bath. As it was a deluxe room there was also a bottle of wine /box of chocolates waiting in the lounge for us, along with a personal parking space outside the room. Patio doors lead from the lounge into a small enclosed patio - will be good in summer.

The food was good also.

We hired a caravan at Butlins for our holiday we loved it so much more than Butlins own accomodation that we bought one in the September after our holiday, I also rent it out for others to enjoy their holiday.

Location at the rear end of the camp, away from any noise but only 5 minutes walk to all the fun facilities.

Good value, caravan excellent.

I now go every month for a weekend and spend as much time there as possible.

The room was absolutely filthy, with a small dirty dank shower......that we just could not use, it was diabolical (this is the only printable word I can use!)

Never never again will I go to Butlins.

We complained and got nowhere! Typical British attitude.
