Sir Billy Butlin was quick to see Minehead's potential in the early 50s and opened a holiday camp in Minehead. The holiday, camp was a great success  and during its hey days in the 1950s and 1960s hordes of excited people arrived for their week or fortnight of fun in the sun. With the advent of cheap holidays abroad the holiday camp industries has declined though still in existence to a lesser degree today although it is a favourite with parents with young families

Covering the heart of the Resort is the Skyline Pavilion. The distinctive canopy can be spotted long before you reach the resort and covers a variety of bars and restaurants, shops, side-shows, arcades and the kid's favourite - Noddy's Toyland.
