Butlin’s Minehead 4+

Took grandchildren 11 and 8 for half term week as have done for last 9 years apart from Covid year. Had Gold apartment which was great. Premium dining and food was very good this year.
Building new Skypark and have taken golf out which was disappointing for the children
Shows are all in Studion 36 or Reds at the moment due to Centre Stage being refurbished. Kids enjoyed Stephen Mulhern and Electric Wonderland but some of the shows were boring for their age group at times
Fair - don’t know whether they have changed height rules as last year my grandson drive a go kart on his own yet this year he couldn’t and he’s a year older and definitely taller than last year so he was very disappointed at this
I have already booked for next year as the kids live it and still had a great time

On arrival we eventually found our suite as the incorrect number was printed on our invoice,we were let in by cleaner early,to find settee stained phoned customer service and they sent a cleaner to rectify the next day,no problem,the food package was well worth the money as the food was exceptional choice and taste and plenty of places to choose from we found everything we did was enjoyable and plenty to do we did read reviews which we were sceptical but we were pleasantly surprised with staff helpfulness and cleanliness of the whole place,l must add it may be a different experience in the summer months as we went in September it was busy but not overcrowded,l would recommend it from our experiences but l wouldn’t take a lot of notice of the negative feedback as you cannot please everyone???one last thing the entertainment again was very professional and enjoyable(will be booking again)

Not been to minehead since I was about 10yrs old, returned this week during summer school holidays & had a fabulous week! Was nervous about how busy it was going to be but even though more people than ever on a staycation it hasn’t felt busy. App is fantastic letting us book the shows we want & have managed to get front & centre seats for most (need to start queuing quite early 20mins before they open doors)
Staff have been great.
Downside app not so good for livechat if you have any technical issues with your accommodation but managed to find someone & received help within an hr.
Weather not always on our side but with so many shows inside like studio 36 it’s not been a problem.
Inside kids fairground has been a huge hit too.
On-site supermarket better than expected, well stocked with good range of items.
Overall a fantastic holiday, plenty of shows & activities to do & restaurant food (when you can get in there) is really nice too.
Thanks to all team members at Butlin’s minehead for all your hard work.
