The secret is to park it as close as to the back security gate as possible. Use gate at the rear where the day parking is and entrance via the secrity gates. This will mean that the security office will be closer to your Scoob. Only a suggestion.

I guess it depends what your in-laws family are like!!!

Seriously though, with the high turnover of visitors, what might be safe for a fortnight, may not be safe for an hour another time.

The safety of your car would be the least of my worries ..... I take it you will be staying in one of the Premier Suites??

Stay away from the people in the £5 a week Budget Suites ...... they make Pikeys look classy!!

Actually, we had a great few days there about 15 years ago - we stayed in a County Suite which was very nice as it only cost £36 for 4 days!!

Would I go back?? Errrrm, a week in Baghdad would appeal more!!

But your car should be safe, drug dealers drive them .... and people who use Butlins are fully tuned in to that fact!

Have parked my Scoob in Bognor on many, many occasions and never had a problem at all. Have to say I've never actually left it in Butlins car park - but I'd guess that was probably safer than leaving it parked in the streets.

And can I just add that ANY seaside town that thinks 'over night parking' should only last until 9am has never taken into account the needs of the holiday maker! If I'm on hols I don't want to have to get up before 9am every bloody morning just to pay to park my car for longer!

George V said it best (apocryphally)

"Bugger Bognor"

It's a fecking hole you'd have to pay me to visit not the other way round. Ever notice it's out on a limb when you drive there? There's a reason for that, to keep the inbreds that live there trapped. The plan is to get enough of them in there and then blow the roads up.
