What help can you offer people with a disability?

We want everyone to get the best out of their stay and to make Spring Harvest as accessible as possible.

What is My Spring Harvest?

Spring Harvest are here all year round, equipping and resourcing Christians across the UK and beyond.

With My Spring Harvest you have access to articles, podcasts, videos, songs and much more. All you have to do is sign up and we'll contact you regularly with our news.

During Spring Harvest we turn it over to show full details of the event programme, so if you are joining us or just curious about what will be happening, sign up now.

How can I see the Spring Harvest programme schedule? 

If you are signed up for My Spring Harvest you will be able to see the full programme and start planning your time at least a week before you go - Because of the many variables outside our control we don't make it available sooner, to avoid confusion when changes are made.

If you are coming and prefer paper, you will be able to buy a pocket-sized programme when you arrive.

How can I help?

Can I volunteer?

Yes please! Every year our Spring Harvest family expands as a huge team of people in a variety of roles bring Spring Harvest to life. Serving alongside the full-time team, you get to experience the ministry of Spring Harvest and know that you have made a difference as people worship, learn and laugh together. And there is always time off to experience the event!

There is also the opportunity of those booked as guests to join our Prayer team or to help in our Creative Studio.

Why not consider joining one of the teams where you can serve our guests and contribute to the life-changing ministry of Spring Harvest? Many volunteers build up lasting friendships and return year after year.

How can I support Spring Harvest?

There are many ways in which you can support Spring Harvest: through prayer, encouraging friends to attend, volunteering or giving financially. See below for more details.

Accommodation

Will there be Chalet TV in my accommodation?

We are keen to make sure those who want to are able to join in worship and teaching from their resort accommodation. You will be able to watch selected live sessions with any internet-connected device you bring with you.

We know that Chalet TV has been valued by some of our guests in the past, but we are no longer able to guarantee its availability due to the aging equipment it relies upon.

Can I book a caravan that’s already at Butlin’s?

Yes, you can book a privately owned caravan at Butlin's. You will then also need to book Day Visitor passes to access the Spring Harvest event.

Day Visitor information is on our Prices page.

Can I bring a touring caravan to Spring Harvest?

Butlin's have closed the touring caravan sites on their resorts so we are no longer able to take bookings for touring caravans.

If you would like to come in your touring van you can book onto a local site and buy day visitor tickets for Spring Harvest.

Can I request ground floor accommodation?

Yes, you can do this for an additional £20 charge.
Blue badge holders can be reimbursed this charge by calling Guest Services once you are at Butlin's.

Do Butlin’s have single accommodation?

Butlin's is a family holiday resort so most accommodation has two or three bedrooms. There is some single bedroom accommodation and a small amount of that is made available for one person to occupy at a supplement of £30. This accommodation is always popular for Spring Harvest and often sells out on the day booking lines open.

We recommend you come with friends or other family members to help share the cost of your accommodation and to enjoy the event with those close to you.

Do Butlin’s have disabled/adapted accommodation?

Please call the Butlin's disability line 0330 100 9732 or visit www.butlins.com/help-contact/disability-requirements to find out about their adapted accommodation. Fully adapted accommodation usually sells quickly so we advise booking early to avoid disappointment.

Booking for Spring Harvest

Can we bring a pet?

Pets are not permitted on the main Butlin’s resorts or in the Caravan Villages if staying in Butlins' caravan accommodation, so cannot be brought to Spring Harvest.

Assistance dogs are permitted, if you need to bring an assistance dog, please speak to Butlin's so you understand their criteria before booking.

What if I have to cancel?

We hope you can join us once you book, but we understand that there may be unforeseen circumstances that mean you have to change your plans.

Spring Harvest cannot cover the cost of a cancelled booking.

Butlin's offer Holiday Protection to cover your booking in case of illness, death, redundancy or Jury Service. Please see their website for full details. It is important to remember this covers the cost of the unit, not each individual guest, so groups sharing accommodation may want to look at other insurance options.

Can we buy a dining package?

There are two Dining Packages available to Butlin's guests, Standard and Premium.
See our Prices page for details.

Dining Packages are not available to day visitors. Butlin's resorts offer a range of other dining experiences, including restaurants and take-away options, which are available for all Spring Harvest guests, including day visitors. See the Butlin's website for details.

How can I book day visitor tickets?

You can buy day visitor tickets from us from January.

Day tickets give access to the Spring Harvest programme and Butlin's facilities. They do not include accommodation and it is not possible for day visitors to book guest meal packages.

Information about day tickets are towards the bottom of our Prices page.

Do I have to pay in full at time of booking, and if not, when is full payment due?

For a resort booking, you only need to pay an initial deposit of £35 per adult and £20 per child aged two to 14 unless booking within 70 days of the start, as that’s when you’ll need to pay in full. For 2026 event that is 19 January for Skegness bookings and 26 January for Minehead bookings.

Butlin’s are happy for you to spread the cost throughout the year. Log into your Butlin's account to pay in installments or visit www.butlins.com/pay to pay towards your booking any time before final payment is due.

We are not able to offer staged payments for day visitor tickets, you must pay in full when you book them.

How are the accommodation costs calculated?

Butlin's charge for accommodation units as if they are fully occupied - per bed space. We give a £20 discount for Children age 2-14. Under 2's go free when in a cot rather than a bed.

There may be additional supplements for example for ground floor accommodation or patio if that is an available option.

A small amount of single bedroom accommodation in Silver is available for one person to occupy, supplement £30. It is always popular. If you are coming alone and don't have friends or family members you can share a unit with and are unsuccessful in booking one of the single units, you might like to consider booking alternative local accommodation and buying a day visitor pass to join us.

Discounts & Concessions

Our Church includes a family of asylum seekers and another on a very low income. Can you help them to come?

The Everyone In Fund helps people in severe hardship who otherwise could not afford to join us. The Fund is limited, so please apply early if you want us to consider offering help with the cost of a booking.

The details are on our Prices page.

Is there any help for benefit recipients?

We’re pleased to offer help to guests on a low income to join us at Spring Harvest through our Everyone In Fund. Funds come from gifts given by our guests and are limited, so please apply early.

Details are on our Prices page.
