Exactly how I remember it I'm going there in August see how much its changed

Still the golden age of butlins, absolutely amazing place 70s/80s, heaven on earth for kids, ...... then in the 90s it started changing in to the soulless, charmless commercial machine it us today, such a shame, I think sir Billy would frown at what his butlins has become.

Haha this brilliant, the Butlins I remember from my childhood holidays with my mum in the 80's. Especially the outdoor lido and the monorail crossing above it. I was 6 in 1986, went every year until my mum passed when I was 12. I'm going again in a week for the first time since with my own 2 children. Hope we get to make some happy memories xx

I was a photographer there from 1985 until 1990 . Had a great time
