4 Sleeps To Go! #ButlinsAmbassador

I can’t believe it has come round so quickly, but in just 4 more sleeps we shall be hitting Bognor Regis Butlins resort!

It will be our first Butlins experience, so I can’t wait to see what it’s like….it will also be baby Emma’s first holiday. I will be interested to see how baby friendly it is, as well as toddler and child friendly of course. My first hurdle was working out how my bottle fed baby will be able to have her bottles sterilised each day with no microwave in our room! But Butlins have come to the rescue and eased any concerns by telling me there is a microwave in each hotel I can use for such things, yay!

We will be staying in the Shoreline Hotel in Nelsons Staterooms, which look amazing!

What’s included

• Daily housekeeping
• 24 hour dedicated reception team
• Rooms with patio and balconies available
• Bathrobes and slippers for the adults
• Telescopes
• King size or twin beds in main area
• Separate children’s den with bunks and bed guards
• Floor to ceiling windows
• Temperature control
• Tea and coffee making facilities, Mini fridge
• Flat screen TV and DVD player in the main area and the children’s den

We have two of the rooms, as with four children we need more room. The idea is that me and hubby will have a room each, I will have the baby in with me for the night feeds, and he will indulge in co-sleeping with our 3 year old. The older children will probably sleep in one of the rooms with bunkbeds where they will probably indulge in dvds before bed.

The Shoreline hotel has some amazing features…

What’s included

• A big hello when you arrive (and goodbye when you go) from our Redcoats and characters
• Billy Bear’s bedroom with bedtime stories exclusive to our hotel guests
• Billy Bear’s Garden with sandpit and water play area in the hotel gardens
• Exclusive photo shoots with our characters – we’ll pop it in a frame and give it to you to take home
• Rubber ducks in the bathroom for bath time and a step-stool
• Free wifi
• Restaurant with separate child size buffet counters and toddler plates and cutlery if you need them
• Extra safety features in your room (corner and plug socket covers etc)
• Free DVD hire
• Activity sessions for the kids at the hotel
• Cots and bedguards available (small extra charge applies)
• A dedicated Billy Bear post box in reception to write him letters, he will then reply back
• Breakfast with the characters if you add a dining plan
• 24 hour dedicated reception team
• Designated Shoreline Hotel car park
• Accessible rooms available

We have got Hotel Dining as part of our holiday plan, which means we get to choose where we eat from a large selection of restaurants. This is something which is really appealing to me, no cooking for all week! I also love Papa Johns, so knowing this is also where we can eat, fills me with smiles.

I am so totally excited for this break! The little extra touches sound amazing, Marky will LOVE the rubber ducks…and Brooke will love writing Billy Bear a letter. I just hope we get some great info on arrival to let us know what’s on and when, so we can plan it all out!

We have been provided with our stay free of charge at Butlins Bognor Regis as part of the Butlins Ambassador program. All thoughts will be my own and 100% honest.
