You have to, I wasn't that impressed last year (2022), but this year was worth the money. It will be interesting to see what happens with the Christmas cocktails now that they have an all inclusive drinks package.
@@KarionTravelling Yes I have seen the new all-inclusive drinks package! That'll be perfect for your hubby hehe...wine, beer & then more wine & beer for his best Christmas ever! I'm wondering if they'll just trial it, as some people might go overboard? Hopefully not though, just a bit jolly and ho ho ho!
@@KarionTravelling I think I might just book it up as we both know how quickly these breaks are snapped up! Oh that's a shame 2022 wasn't so good,hopefully last year made up for it. 🎅 🎶 🎄 🍫 🕺 🍷 🍻 🎠And this year will be even better! 🎉
Hi Kari! Good to see you in another video. Butlins makes the festive wonderland so magical & special & in my opinion, it's such a good price! I especially love the carousel, pantomime & all the shows! Every child & adult should experience Christmas wonderland at Butlins!
Absolutely, the Father Christmas experience this year was outstanding. I really hope they bring that back. They could run it all day every day and still need more slots. It was so popular.
@@KarionTravelling Yes it looked so much fun for the girls :) Would've loved that when we were little, although we had the best Santa's grotto & Christmas parties where my Dad worked, so can't grumble. I've just looked at prices for the 2nd of December! Such good value... So I might have to be a 'little bit naughty' this year...
Forgot to mention I worked a Christmas season in the Butlins store & on photography. Was fun, but exhausting too. Worked 8 consecutive days! We also received a selection box and a chocolate orange from my manager and we all had a superb 3 course Christmas meal, meal out & disco, a fab night with East 17 performing live on stage. It really was a fab & fun time, hence why I wanted to experience the winter wonderland experience again, but as a guest & we weren't disappointed! I would've happily paid more for the break actually.
@@KarionTravelling Yes you're right. It was such a nice surprise to receive a few unexpected chocolatey treats just before Christmas! I really did appreciate the selection box & the chocolate orange. It made me feel appreciated & valued . The Al you can eat Christmas dinner in the restaurant went down a treat too. I had beef Wellington & turkey :) and a selection of starters too probably! A colleague and I had about 3 desserts because they were just too tempting to resist! haha! A few people complained about things, but I had the time of my life mostly. It was defintely tiring, but also one of the most fun experiences of my life!
@@KarionTravelling it was! And it was amazing, definitely made Christmas feel a lot more special in it's own ways. Having Christmas dinner in the restaurant with crackers, and elderly man on the table opposite gave my son his last cracker, the dad's wearing their Christmas pj's whilst on the fair rides etc. It didn't feel like a normal Christmas at all, but it was nice seeing everyone else celebrating Christmas at the same time and all the kids having fun x
@@KarionTravelling Plenty of Arcades in the area and even on Site Bingo You wanna trip into Great Yarmouth it’s only a 10min drive I’m currently there on my Holiday And I think it’s a recommendation
Kari... Jess is just the sweetest little girl. I loved her pink feather pen! & Your husband's list made me chuckle... A porsche maybe?.. Nope... just wine! Lambourgini maybe? Nope! Just beer! Monster truck? Nope! Just more wine and beer! Well he's easy to please! :) 🍷 🍻 And he's been naughty too! Honest too! Maybe that was the wine & beer! Maybe that's why he knows he won't be getting the Porsche, Lambourgini or monster truck, but because he was so honest, hopefully his wish of wine, beer & more wine & beer came true? And.. Maybe if he's good next year, father Christmas will bring him wine, beer and everything else! But he already has you & Jess, so maybe just another crate of beer & wine will suffice! The visit to father Christmas looks so enchanting! I think my wish this year will to be 5 again, so I can visit father Christmas at Butlins! I'll ask for lots of chocolate, a huge doll's house as I always wanted one when I was little & sylvanian family animals too! :) 🐰 🍫 🏡 perfect! 🎉
He's been a good boy this year, beer is definitely on the list, maybe the budget with stretch to a mini monster truck. 😁. I had a few Sylvanian family when I was a girl. I could have spent so much money collecting them all.
@@KarionTravelling Aww glad to hear he's been good this year. More beer & wine for him then & bonus a mini monster truck too. He must've been good then! Aww... I bet you had so much fun. loved sylvanian families, but they were so expensive. We were spoilt with my little ponies, keepers & popples. Not loads, but maybe a special one we asked for, so again, can't grumble! Christmas was always magical.
I had the Swan keeper for Christmas one year. Father Christmas searched loads of shops for it and finally found one in the 'Nick' of time. I had a Rhinokey Wuzzle one year, but I really wanted Butterbear.
@@KarionTravelling Hi Kari! I would've replied sooner, but I fell very unwell just hours after our interaction on here last week, went to hospital in an ambulance, spent 5 nights in hospital & had major surgery after told the condition I had could be life threatening/fatal! Well here I am! Back home & recovering really well! 🎉 Your videos give me so much comfort :) 🌸 I remember the swan keeper! Father Christmas knows how to make dreams come true! Also remember the wuzzles too, but not sure if I had one. I think my brother had one in his toy shop in Worthing actually! I hope you're all well. Now I can get back to booking the festive Butlins break I'd set out to do this time last week :) 🌸
Oh my goodness, what a nightmare. I'm not a fan of hospitals. Every time I go to one, I get sick! I'm so pleased you're OK, and watching me gave you comfort, just don't pop any stitches laughing. ❤️

@Hayley-dm2je I've heard that Butlins have great rewards for staff. It makes such a difference to staff motivation and morale.

We went to the festive wonderland at Bognor Regis too, we went over Christmas 23rd-27th xx
That sounds very special. We haven't been over Christmas day yet, but I've heard great things about it. Was it everything you hoped for.
@@KarionTravelling it was! And it was amazing, definitely made Christmas feel a lot more special in it's own ways.

@@CharlotteJanvier29 that's what I would like, just for the atmosphere. 🙂
I’ve watched Christmas goes goes Pop last Christmas it was amazing including my favourite character Mimi and Dude
I liked the Christmas songs and their versions. Mimi and Misty are my favourites, and Jess likes Candi.
@@KarionTravelling Candi is my second favourite
@SkylineGangFan1 have you tried the Skyline Gang dance academy? I've heard very good things about it.
@@KarionTravelling I definitely do indeed I’m a massive dance Academy person as well
I'd like to sign Jess up for it in a year or two. 🙂
Hey Kari I may have a Holiday park for you
Hemsby beach Holiday park
Thank you. Was there something in particular that you liked or that you thought was worth covering?
