We've got lots of handy tools for you to use while you're on resort to maximise the fun and reduce the stress! Start off by familiarising yourself with Skegness using the resort and accommodation maps below.
Swimming: for your safety we ask that all guests arrive swim-ready and limit the number of personal items you bring with you. Showers are back in use and lockers will be provided, so don’t forget to bring a £1 coin!

Vouchers are only redeemable throughout your stay and on the break date that they have been issued for. Please note that any balance remaining at the end of your holiday is non-transferable to other break dates, or to other guests that have a Butlin's booking. Once you have left our resort any credit balance unused will expire on the day that you leave at 13:00. Please see our Terms & Conditions for further detail.
