Greencamp

The Green Camp, Greenacres, Lagoon Bay and Holnicote Village

1967 Map of Area

Taken from my 1967 Entertainment Guide

The 1967 entertainment guide indicates that the Greencamp is a blank area with only the name displayed. No graphics are included in this section, with only the number 15 added. The details reveal that number 15 is the designated First Aid Post.

1976 Map of Area

With graphics added, the Green camp no longer shows the first aid post on the map. Take note that there is no chapel at this location at this stage.

Greenacres

In transforming into Butlins Holiday Worlds, the Green Camp underwent some changes. Firstly, the name was changed to Greenacres and the accommodation was updated. Secondly, a new location for the chapel was added, with the Greenacres reception moving into the building in the car park. At the rear of the chapel, there is a chalet facing towards you. Marked as number 15 on the map, this is the Convenience Store. The camps chapel is number 29, while number 28 is the accommodation enquiries and chaplain's office. Number 18 is the self-catering reception.

1993 Greenacres

Taken from my 1993 Entertainment Guide

In the 1993 entertainment guide, the convenience store and the Chaplin office have been removed. However, the Chaplin is still listed as number 47. The Greenacres reception has been converted into check-in number 2.

2001 Lagoon Bay

Lagoon Bay

Following major changes made in 1999 by the Rank Organisation, the previous owners, each village was renamed. Greenacres was replaced with the new name Lagoon Bay. Although the chapel still remains, it is not listed on this map. Number 54 indicates the location of the payphones and 56 indicates the location of the toilets.

Holnicote Village

The chalets were renamed Holnicote Village, a name that remains to this day. The ones shown in purple have now got patios installed at the front with pathways going through the middle where the grass used to be. Some still have inserts in the middle that you can walk through. The units at the bottom end do not have patios and are all self-catering. The dark green chalet is part of the Deluxe line (formerly Premier).

Who and What is Butlin's Memorabilia Website
The Butlins Memorabilia website was originally established as a place on the internet where people could view Mark Banks' Butlins collections. As a passionate enthusiast of the brand, Mark took the initiative to explore the extensive history that led to the website's transformation. Now, the Butlins Memorabilia site has matured into a historical education platform, demonstrating to visitors the meaningful ways in which Butlins has fostered joy and created unforgettable memories.

Are you the official Butlins Archive?
There exists only ONE official website that represents Butlins and that is located at www.butlins.com. The Butlins Memorabilia website is NOT the official archive of Butlins, nor does it serve as the authentic historical record of this extraordinary company. Butlins and their respective parent company have no role in the development of this site and have not participated in its creation. The singular official source for all Butlins information is the one indicated above. This site is strictly a fan-created platform, and any material presented here should be viewed as unofficial. Butlins and their esteemed parent company have NOT reached out to me to create this site, nor have they requested me to promote them. I undertake this effort solely to demonstrate my appreciation for their remarkable name and brand.

If you want to know more about this website
If you would like to read more about this website, you are more than welcome to click on these words. This special page will show you more about this site, how my Butlins collections started, how to get in touch with Mark, Social media links, our Facebook experts and the friends of this website.

The Untold Stories of Butlin's
An exciting addition to the website is the section titled "Untold Stories of Butlin's," which includes a range of personal stories. These narratives have been contributed by members of the Butlins Memorabilia social media groups, who have shared their individual experiences at Butlin's. It is important to understand that these stories are not sanctioned by the official company but are personal recollections from the individuals, as indicated on the page. The accounts shared reflect the magical atmosphere of Butlin's and the memorable moments it has inspired.

Can I get in touch with you about my situation at Butlins for some help?
For any issues related to bookings, inquiries on how to use the app, or to file a complaint, it is essential to follow the official procedure by contacting Butlins directly. Unfortunately, the Butlins Memorabilia website is not equipped to handle these matters, and no assistance can be provided through this platform. Complaints must be directed to Butlins, as they are the only ones capable of addressing them; this site lacks the direct control or involvement necessary to assist. The sole website that can provide help is the Butlin's official site, www.butlins.com. Everything you need can be found there, including their contact page, which is available on this link, and assistance with the Butlins app can be found on this link.

Google adverts and policies
There is a single Google advertisement located at the top of each page. I have created a privacy policy available at this link and a cookie policy at this link, which aim to provide further clarification regarding this section of the website, with the intention of enhancing your understanding of how this operates.
