Hi.
Does anyone know if they allow folding campers in Butlins Minehead?.
I know they allow touring caravans but not tents but there is no mention of folding campers.

They probably don't know what they are, so it's best to give them a call and explain.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?

As bluexpo97 says, it is best to phone and explain that the bottom half is like a caravan and needs no pegging.  I had to do this with Haven at Poole, who hadn't a clue what I was talking about and I eventually sent them a link to the Conway Owners site so they could have a look!  They did take us so worth a try.

I second the C& CC club at Minehead, far nicer than Butlins. Bit of an interesting drive up but amazing views at the top.

After a 3 year break the trailer tent is back in use. Here"s to 2016.

I will phone Butlins when I get home (at the moment I'm in Northam farm Brean for a week).
It's crazy Butlins do not advertise their camp site online.
I am a member of C.C.club and I'll check that site out.

We've used our Pennine Fiesta at Butlins, Minehead a few times, had a great time!

Minehead

01643 700515 – Touring site and general enquiries.

We've not been for a couple of years so things may have changed but is a small site at the bottom of one of the carparks, the facilities are basic but adequate and it's a great way to go... we've managed to get on with one days notice, perfect if there a couple days sunshine expected!

Thanks for the replies.

I phoned them, after explaining what a folding camper was, I was told "no problem with folding or trailer tents".

They have emailed me a booking form.

Roll on June.
