Thanks
Already watched it 👍🏼
Keep em coming
Theme park world wide your video was enjoyable 👍😀
I went to butlins for a school trip on Monday this week. Stayed 2 nights, food was nice, rides were fun but I regretted the waltzers lol. I screamed so badly and they disturbed the liquid in my ears from the spinning so I went deaf for a few minutes
This vlog was amazing but I also have one thing to say to you guys and that is thank you. Without you guys I wouldn’t be interested in roller coasters and wouldn’t have the urge to travel and try new roller coasters. So Shawn and Charlotte thank you for getting me into this stuff and I hope you guys had a good time at Butlin’s. Can’t wait for the next video!
Thank you so much
Absolutely love you guys, recognised your voice while vlogging outside reds and was so excited to see it was actually you guys! Me and my partner spend hours watching you both, amazing coverage in all your videos and such a lovely pair of people! Have the best time you two ❤
Thanks for watching!
Went to Butlin's Skegness, in 1991, when it was still called Funcoast World, and there were more than 3 Butlin's Holiday Camps in the UK.
The funfair was a LOT smaller back then, and towards the back of the park.
Only ride that I actually remember is the Mexican Hat Ride... went on that every day of the 10 days that we were there. I kinda wish that I had catalogued re-rides on things back then!
Saw Buck Fizz there during that time, too. That was my first ever concert! Been to a few since then ahaaaa.... and have another one in Blackpool on Sunday!
Yea I'm going on Pleasure Beach for a few hours lol, going on Valhalla and Enso, then going to the gig!!!
So yea, nice to know that Butlin's is kinda cheap in the low season, I might go one year, reminisce or something...
Thanks for sharing your memories!
Every time I look at the new Skypark, it reminds me of the Wooden Adventure Fort that used to be at Butlin's....
It does have those vibes!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I used to have this imagination of the Wooden Adventure Fort being much bigger on the hill, and the fairground arcade building was at the top of the hill, and you seemingly had to venture through the many depths of the fort to get to it. In my last dream of it when I was 12, the fairground arcade building seemed to also contain a games console and chill-out room and an entertainment venue of what appeared to be Centre Stage despite one being in the Skyline Pavillion itself. I might end up making a video based on this dream with the Skypark, the High Ropes Course and the Fairground Arcade building, along with Centre Stage...
@@sambee8982reminds me of a dream I had from when I was younger, I was waiting in line at Alton Towers for the Octonaughts coaster (or whatever it was at the time) and it has hailing. Then I turned around to see the hotel inside the park, and it was on the surface and not half-underground
26:59 Omg i remeber these kids rides when i used to visit when i was little but they were inside and themed around Bob the Builder and they even had a stage show in that area with the characters
Thanks for sharing your memories!
The black (nut cracker) item in the kitchen drawer is a detachable handle for the grill tray... same ones they've been using for 30 years lol
42:34 I remember going through a metal tunnel like that one on a climbing frame and I got stuck at one point and had to have help getting out
Loved the top spin I can remember it being in a corner even loved the simulator too I can remember I was scared to go on top spin and the ride operator gave me a teddy bear to come on it staff are amazing. But I am so glad now they have spent the money in the fair ground and started to look after it
Thanks for sharing your memories!
Who else remembers the miami that they used to have at the funfair? I loved that thing!
It was good fun!
I go to Butlins bognor every year and I have made friends with the cast and the red coats there. Butlins is my hyper fixation
Off been 15 times in Skegness and that’s the only one off been to we go twice every year
Stayed at bognor twice and done several day trips in the last 10 years and stayed at minehead once in about 1990. Did a day trip to one in wales when they were a thing and did the ride like boomerang at Pleasurewood hills that was my first ever ‘big’ ride
Pleasurewood hills and Butlins are underrated
Nutcracker (33:25) or the handle for the grill pan 🤣😂 made me laugh so much. Great video guys! 😁😁😁
The place I liked in Butlins was the beachcomber bar where you can watch the underwater view of the indoor pool, the theming was great, hope I am not giving my age 😂
If I was going to buntlins in Skegness during the summer holidays I would rate it as the best holiday park for everyone in the UK.
I’ve never been, but my mum and brother are there at the moment (Monday-Friday). They’re loving it🙂
Brilliant video guys, thank you. Just returned from Butlins Minehead, had a fab time, couldn't believe how much it has changed but as you say it's great they are spending money on it's resorts.
Thank you!
I have been to Skegness, Bognor and used to be one in puthwelli wales they used to have the umbrella ride and wales had a rollercoaster and every butlins used to have a waltzer that is my favourite ride it looks like it’s not at Skegness anymore which is a huge shame
I've never been to butlins before. I enjoy when you visit parks I know little about or ones that I know I will visit soon!
Nice to see they’ve upgraded the fair at butlins skeggy- long overdue
It’s great to see!
That tilting wheel you went on was one of my favourites at Morecambe's Frontierland! It was all yellow and I called it the the big yellow wheel lol! Xxx
Such a classic!
£120 for 4 nights!! You canny moan at that at all. What a great deal. Great to see the refreshed funfair!
It was a bargain!
Yes I loved this last year. The red slide at the waterpark is SO GOOD
It’s great fun!
Great bit of Billy butlins heritage and lovely day 1 and tour I would of loved to see you both on the go karts
We managed to film on them in the day two vlog!
Butlins is great. Has a poor reputation but it’s so cheap out of term time. We love it. Looks like Skegness has had a lot of investment too.
It’s a great place!
Have fun at Butlins
I have never actually been to a Butlins holiday resort.
However i have been to the Golden Sands Caravan park twice in Mablethorpe which is about 17 miles north of Skegness in Lincolnshire, England.
Golden Sands is a Haven Holidays Caravan park & that was very enjoyable to visit.
I believe Butlins is actually in Ingoldmells which is about 4 miles north of Skegness.
Butlins does look better than Haven Holiday parks.
It looks like there is more to do at Butlins in regards to entertainment.
Thanks for sharing!
They should bring back the Boomerang Coaster and the Simulator that were famous for having at one of there old Welsh sites.
Nice and early! Enjoy butlins!!
Thanks!
Excellent timing on the drop! Just getting 2nd cup of coffee and was looking for something to watch! I love these vlogs!
Thanks for watching!
I've just read that apparently Alton towers has announced the return of nemesis sub terra for may half term but don't quote me on it.
They have indeed!
31.16 The picture on the wall in the apartment, that is Billy Butlin himself riding the whirl. When I first went to Butlins at Skeggy in the 70s the Fairground was right at the other end of the resort towards Ingoldmels. Great to see the old place still looking good and brings back some great memories.
Brilliant!
I absolutely love butlins resorts!! They are my favourite UK places so i am very excited for you to do 4 vlogs of this gotta love butlins YEAH YEAH YEAH!
They are great fun!
I love the fact you go to a good British holiday park and not just big theme parks
Thank you!
Omg! So gutted we was up there the week before 😢 we of loved to seen you guys up there. Love the vlog keep it up 🎉
We hope you had fun!
Loving to see the Theme Park Worldwide coming to my local town
Always love a visit to Skegness!

I'm at Skegness butlins right now and skypark was amazing. It's a bit hard to get up there but it is the best park I've every seen and i can't wait to see it light up. I also went into the arcades and won 500 ticket in 30 minutes. I have also met lots of new people and made some friends in my first 5 hours here.
I remember top spinner and Miami wave, & original pool which was miles better with the boat flume. Ahh the sweet memories. Going on July 3rd to butlins but I’ll be going as a parent in stead of the child. Wild how times change. Thanks for another awesome vlog Shawn & Charlotte x
Thanks for sharing your memories!
33:25 It looks like the handle for the grill tray. 33:35 Look in the tree to the right, what is know as witches knickers. Thank you again Shawn and Charlotte for the tour of the updated Butlins Skegness.
Thanks for watching!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide looking forward to the next Skegness vlog.
Trabant, Wipeout, Mexican Hat... I've heard it called loads of names, but it's always been my favourite flat ride. As far as I can remember it was the first "grown-up" flat ride I ever experienced... and to this day, one of the only ones that doesn't knock me sick. Love it!
They are great fun!
HE FINALLY WENT!
Oh wow I haven’t been to Skegness & butlins since I was 6. Great memories you have bought back of happy family holidays so thanks guys great video can’t wait for more ❤ Lisa
Thanks for joining us!
I used to go every year to a butlins loved them especially Skegness the wales one I liked cos of roller coaster
Great Day One Vlog from Butlin’s Skegness Shawn and Charlotte
Thanks!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide you’re welcome

Thank you for joining us!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Its always a pleasure.
Brilliant to see Butlins have updated there funfair looks great going to book to go this year .
It’s looking good!
I have only ever went to the Butlins in Minehead but I last went several years ago. I remember loving it so much when I was younger! Such an incredible vlog ❤
Thanks for watching!
Yes many memories, Butlins skegness every year from 1980 with monorail and chairlifts when fair was at opposite end of site. Coming for last time to skegnes in october one last hooray and only 4 hours on train from manchestsr. Visited minehead once in 2005
I was wondering what they were going to put in the old spa building I went into the spa and it was lovely and good to see they have done the fun fair up looks amazing
What a fabulous vlog guys I have seen few videos but yours definitely is the best especially the review of the fair and Charlotte is so funny. We arrive in half term can not wait
Thanks for joining us!
You guys are amazing, such energetic happy people, pleasure to watch you. I live in Middlesbrough so butlins Skegness and flamingo land was my second homes growing up. Keep up the great work love it see it ❤
Thank you so much
Another good vlog, really enjoyed and always look forward to the next. Nice funfair, really spacious, could maybe in Little Stars see a small junior coaster going in there 100%, but in main, maybe a Pinball X type coaster? Think thats what both types of parks could do with in both types of parks in my opinion, would love by the way all resorts maybe in future overtime recieve bigger coasters like what UK Parks have, but I don't think this is what will happen. But I guess all we can do is wait & see, but type of coaster I would love to see at one of the resorts one day is a coaster similar to Fly at Phantasialand, think something like this would be epic especially if does sort of what Mandrill Mayhem does? Circles entire resort at heights, twists and turns? Family thrill flying coaster for all thrills, families and all to experience? Think that would be epic, but doubt will happen. Skypark structure, man thats really high, tall. You have guts for climbing up through that metal tunnel at top of tower, looks to me a bit not strong to hold full adult, obviously it did as your still here, but I couldn't go on that at that height, not that brave lol. But congrats to you, real brave. Really good video, really enjoyed and look forward to Day two. 😀👍
Thank you!
Me and my daughter Evie (shes 6) absolutely love every single one of your vlogs :) but tonight Evie was belly laughing so much at charlotte spinning around in the park area! Amazing! Thank you both for always putting a big smile on our faces! Evie's especially 😍💕
Thanks for your support!
Skegness has always felt like the real Butlins to me and my view remains the same. Off peak the value is phenomenal but whenever you stay there is so much do in the area, so many arcades, fairs and attractions, the only seaside resort that can compete with Blackpool for non stop fun. That chippy tea you had was extremely good value, look forward to day 2
There’s so much to do!
I used to work for the Rock and sole in butlins years ago, I am so glad they kept improving the resort it looks amazing. The battered sausage and chips brought back a lot of memories 😂
They’ve done some great improvements!
I’ve never been to a Butlins but I would really like to. It looks so fun! I’m going to Alton Towers in June!! So excited!
when you guys were at the sky park i was laughing so so much what a great vlog like always!!
Thank you!
I love you guys and this channel so much, when I see that you have posted it makes me so happy, these videos make my day !
Thank you!
Omg you make us laugh so much. , Glad you had a great time there looks great , nice pants Shaun 😅👌, you both crease us 😂.
Thanks for watching!
I love that camp and the make over is fam
I was there the same time as you (and feature briefly on your fantasy vlog 😂😂) wish our apartment was like yours... Ours clearly needed a touch up compared to yours.
Still annoyed that they've taken away the camel racing.... My absolute favourite thing about Butlins. I would of happily sat there for an hour daily just wasting my money 💰🤑💰
The umbrella ride is the paratrooper that one is great
The mystery Black thing in the kitchen drawer looked like the handle for the grill pan
Shaun, you defiantly do some travelling, how do you fund all of your trips, it isnt cheap to do all the adventures you do
Thanks for watching! We fund our trips through running both of our UA-cam channels full time!
Well done you 👍🏻 you have broken the mould, stick at it mate, love the vids and your energy
I used to go to Butlins Skegness every year when i was little with my mum, dad, brother, nan and grandad and one year i went for my birthday in December and it snowed and we wenr in the beach in the snow and it was so strange.
I'm off soon and looking forward to the new additions!! Thanks for getting me excited for my hols 😊❤
Have fun!
Handle for the grill pan 😂😂 not a nutcracker
Great Vlog, loving all the refurbishment on the fair, looks nice and new now, before it all looked very tired 👍🏻😎
Thanks for joining us!
We happened to book a trip here for September literally last weekend so this is great timing & really useful to get to see what its like as we've never been before
It looks really good, a cheap & cheerful holiday, bargain for what you get for the money.
Now I'm even even more excited about going
Have a great time!
We stayed there last week. Some of the new rides weren’t working. Kids had a great time. That sky park was a bit of a challenge to climb up. Is the duck still sat outside the skyline on her eggs? We were shouting ‘Look’ when you walked past
It is indeed!
Going this year in August for 7th year in a row
Love your videos
Oh they do have the waltzer I love that thats reason I loved butlins is the waltzer
erm! i think i have just found my favourite channel! loved your in-depth reviews!
Thank you so much
We were there last week, shame we missed you. Skypark was great.
It’s a great addition!
That apartment is amazing!
We loved it!
I’ve gone Minehead as a child lot of times and now I take sister my kids to Minehead x
What rollercoaster was that you could see in the distance on the drop tower?
Fantasy Island park could be what you're seeing.
Fantasy Island! Our vlog will be coming up tomorrow from that park!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide oh wow cooool! cant wait!
I was on the train and the dad and the girl is us!
I have only been to butlins 3 times but my wife used to go every year from the mid 70s.When we were in Skegness she pointed out things that were different. The fairground used to be on the other side of the resort, there were also 2 theatres the Gaiety Theatre and Playhouse theatre. Next to the underground passage was a roller skating rink.There were boats on the lake and the outdoor pool was at the front. The indoor pool had glass windows so if you were in the cafe you could see people feet. We last visited Skegness in 2014 and my wife's favourite bit was the Spa. May look into visiting again with our granddaughter soon
Thanks for sharing!
Just got back from butlins Skegness, we had an amazing time even though it rained and we froze everyday. I particularly liked the new sky park, which was the best park I’ve ever been to. We came for the Stephen Mulhern show and it was amazing, we even got a free room upgrade which was nice.
Looks awesome guys thanks for a great vlog, im looking to book here this year n watching this with my daughter has really got us excited and pumped for a week there .. love watching,thank you guy's ❤️ 👌
Thank you!
Hi shawn and Charlotte looks like you had a good time I've never stayed at Butlins. Your accommodation looks better than I've seen on some you tube vlogs. I think they should try and paint it up in places but I suppose it's work in progress. Thanks for sharing with us. Love to you both as always Tracey 💕 xxxx
Good to see they got new dodgem cars nice set off ninjas
I love theme parks and places like Butlins. I really love Skegness .
Wow cool playground :)
Must say this feels so wired having come back from here today and seeing you there and at fantasy amazing week tho 😂
We hope you had fun!
33:26 that looks like the detachable handle off a pan for the oven not a nut cracker
Another thoroughly enjoyable vlog, you two. Also watched and loved the Walk the Woodie video you both did as well and loving the new World of Theme Parks Museum - so artistic - you have obviously studied theme park design very closely and you and your Pa are very talented. We are hoping to book for Skeggy this year. Charlotte hope you are ok after that ride! xx
Thanks for watching!
Just booked for next year after seeing this vlog !
Have fun!
I’m off to Butlins Skeggy next month, good video
The One I Always Waiting For(::

Shawn, if you can fit in into your US schedule coming up soon, there’s a HUGE indoor climbing/tunnel/slide museum called City Museum in downtown St. Louis, MO. Would be a perfect bit for your other channel! 😉
Thanks for your suggestion!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Wear knee pads if you go. You’ll thank me later. 😂
Hi there, your videos are beautiful. We went to ingoldmells for the first time last weekend. It was beautiful and am now looking at buying a caravan. Keep it coming. Thanks
