I used to be a chalet attendant at Minehead (1994-1999) & was very fond of these chalets 😊 It's a shame that most of the original chalets have been demolished now 😔

Thanks for the comments, and I would have agreed with you when I made that video. Thankfully since then there have been massive improvements and in 2023 I'm very pleased to be able to say that Butlin's is BACK! If you haven't been for a while I strongly recommend you do. Minehead is the resort that is most unchanged. But at all three resorts the original Redcoat uniform is back, as is the original slogan, at Minehead there's new chalets that are modern versions of the original chicken sheds, and there's loads of nostalgic references everywhere across all resorts!
