My kids were forever on holiday as I was the organiser of a local group and got holiday free for taking over a certain number of people. They remember with great affection both Butlin’s and Pontins.
However, one recently took her 2 yr old granddaughter to Pontins at Brean Sands. It was terrible. The chalet was so filthy that when it was inspected the whole of the bedding had to be binned. The lavatory was disgustingly filthy, with even the basin cracked and the cooker and microwave still held stale food. The manager claimed it was due to temporary cleaning staff but as most of the so called advertised attractions were closed, it was just a dreary empty dirty place during the day and filled with drunks fighting in the evenings. She couldn’t get away quick enough. So for those wishing to relive childhood holidays, please, please read comments of people who have recently visit the venue. Pontins at Brean Sands would be closed down should anyone from the local Environmental Health Office make an unannounced visit. It will probably be closed down soon anyway.
