Have you taken them anywhere else?

Do you go anywhere if you don’t drive or don’t use public transport in areas you don’t know?

Butlins is brilliant for young teens. So much more to do than at Havens and it is all included in the price. The shows are brilliant. We saw Stephen Mulhearn doing magic last year and it was great. The pool is really good with outdoor rapids and the fun fair is all included in the price. You can let teens go off on their own. It's a lot cheaper than Centre Parks and usually right on the beach as well. I would definitely go. I hope you have a great time.

Thanks I will have a another look I just didn’t want to end up being surrounded by parents with toddler and the only teenagers
