Urbane's Review of Butlins, Minehead

Good Points

A very easy place to be a parent on holiday, loads of opportunity to spend time enjoying some fun with the kids, but easy to entertain them so you can have a break and read a book too.


Bad Points

All the flashing noisy games machines in the sky line are any parent's nightmare. Explaining to a five year old that just because you put money in doesn't mean you'll get something out became a little testing.


General Comments

The accommodation (Silver) was perfectly fine and clean, the bathroom was spotless. The food selection on our Bed/Dinner/Breakfast pass to Ocean Drive was wide, hot, tasty and you could have as much or as little (or strange combinations) as you wanted. The Sky Line shows for the kids are great if a little too loud. Titan the robot scared the living daylights out of my daughter but she can't stop talking about him now. Buy food for lunch on site was a little pricey but there is always the option of Minehead which is only a five minute walk away. The staff were all friendly, helpful and polite, in particular making sure the kids have fun. The changing rooms at the pool are not for the self concious since there are no cubicles but hey "when in Rome". I think that fact that both I and my daughter had tears in our eyes as we left, wishing the fun could last a little longer sums it up.
