All the information you need to know regarding the caravan itself and the Sandhills 230 plot is as follows…

·             The caravan is a modern 2019 Kensington Regal, 3 bedrooms, 8 berth static caravan 39 ft x 13 ft with a gated veranda.  It is a central living room style, ie. has a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with a toilet, basin, and large shower at one end of the caravan, 2 further twin bedrooms at the opposite end, each with 2 single beds. There is a separate shower room and separate toilet with basin next to the twin bedrooms.

·             In the centre of the caravan is the living room with fully kitted out kitchen which has 2 x bar stools/breakfast area plus a separate dining area.  The living room has a large modern sofa with footstool and coffee table.  The living room sofa pulls out into a double bed.  The kitchen has a gas cooker with oven and grill and 4 gas rings.  There is a filter coffee machine (filter paper size 100) and a small cafetiere for fresh coffee.  There is a large, fitted fridge freezer and a dishwasher (both full sized).  In the living room, there is a large flat screen TV with FreeView and there is a small flat screen TV with DVD player in the main double bedroom. 

·             The caravan is fully centrally heated with completely new central heating (boiler and radiators) and smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

·             It is fully kitted out with everything you need from crockery, cutlery, cleaning materials, iron and ironing board, duvets, and pillows.  All you need is to bring is all of your own linen (duvet covers, pillow covers, sheets and towels, including tea towels).

·             This caravan is quite unique compared to your typical holiday park static caravan both in style (being very homely and also having the main bedroom at the other end of the van away from the other bedrooms for maximum privacy) and where it is situated, as it is quite private due to a hedged grassed area next to the caravan.

·             7 minutes’ walk to the main resort (there is a walking shortcut from the caravan to the main Butlins resort).

·             Parking space for 2 cars next to the caravan and availability for additional parking very close by.

·             Pitch is surrounded by a grassed area for children to play and hedges for extra privacy.

·             Please refer to the photographs for pictures of the caravan, pitch, and maps.

The small print…

·             The list price includes up to 4 entertainment passes (2 adult and 2 children) to the main Butlins Resort, including the Big Weekends (age 18 and above).  Additional passes can be purchased, however, no more than 8 people in total can stay in the caravan and all must be named on the booking form.  Infants under 2 years old do not require an entertainment pass.

·             Absolutely no smoking is allowed anywhere in the caravan.  Well behaved pets are most welcome, but they all must be declared, so please ask when booking.  Any soilage or damage to the caravan from pets will be deducted from your security deposit.

·             A security bond of £100 (£200 for Big Weekends and guests with pets) will be required prior to holiday commencement.  This will be fully refunded on the condition the caravan and contents are not damaged or soiled and there are no missing items.

·             The security deposit will be returned to you via PayPal or direct bank transfer within 5 working days of the end of your holiday.  Any breakages, missing items, damage, or soiling will have to be taken from the security deposit.  The cleaners will confirm all has been left intact after you leave, take an inventory, and take photographs of any damage.  Accidents happen, particularly with young children, so please don't worry, but do report them.

·             Check in is at 4.00 pm on the day of arrival and check out is strictly by 11.00 am on the day of departure to allow for the changeover clean for the next guest.  Guests are welcome to use the main Butlins resort facilities while waiting for the keys.

·             Changes to the booking once made, eg. additional guests/passes added or changed or late bookings (booking made with less than 7 days’ notice) will incur an administration fee of £20.00. (This is charged by Butlins).

·             No single gender large groups or parties/stag or hen do’s.  Sorry, but this is a Butlins rule.

·             If any caravan maintenance or service is required, eg. smoke alarm batteries running out, light bulbs requiring replacing, broken external pipes, gas boiler issues, electrical faults, problems with water, eg. no running or hot water, etc. please report these immediately to the Caravan Village Reception and a maintenance engineer will address the issues for you.

·             No reimbursements will be made for holidays cancelled less than 8 weeks prior to holiday start date.  Booking holding deposits are entirely non-refundable, in the event of cancellation.  All cancellations made in the period up to 8 weeks prior to holiday start date will be refunded at 90% of the sum already paid to cover my administrative costs.

·             Once you have paid in full and I have confirmed all your guest details, you will receive your Butlins Caravan Village Skegness booking confirmation through the post, no later than 2 weeks prior to your holiday start date (or via email if a late booking).  You will need to present this confirmation to the Caravan Village Reception to exchange for your welcome pack, including caravan keys, passes into Butlins, maps, guide, and entertainment schedule.

·             Check in time is 4.00 pm on the day of arrival and check out is strictly 11.00 am on the day of departure.  Please do not delay on checking out, because you may get a knock by the cleaners if so.  They will need access to the caravan to clean down and confirm all ok for your security deposit refund before the next guests arrive. 

·             Any late bookings (less than 5 days) will incur a late administration fee of £20.00.

·             Any changes to bookings already made, either in guests or check in times, will incur a £20.00 administration fee.

·             All these fees are charged by Butlins to me and therefore have to be passed on to guests.

Finally, just to say that my caravan is also my family holiday home.  It is loved very much and looked after well.  Please do treat the van and its contents with respect and care.  However, if there are any issues at all, please report to both me and the Caravan Village Reception and we will both do our best to sort them out.

If you have any questions, contact (WhatsApp message, text, or call) Bev on 07928 153601.  Please leave me a message if I don't answer - I will get back to you.

Many thanks for your booking, I hope you have a lovely stay!
