Due to the smaller chalet options selling out so fast, organisers have started a 'Share A Chalet' scheme for those who want to come but can't find enough people to buy a bigger chalet. If you wouldn't mind sharing with people you don't know in order to be able to buy a chalet, please email us at nightmarechalets@gmail.com with details of how many people you have interested in buying, and they will get back to you with more information on how you can pay individually for single chalet spaces.

Butlins Minehead looks out across a sandy beach. The site is equipped with a supermarket, newsagent, cash points and restaurants. Onsite facilities include an ATP programmed cinema, Splash Water World - a sub-tropical environment that has a wave pool, a swimming pool, 3 flumes and also a flume based raft ride - Ten-pin bowling and amusement arcade.
