Couple vow never to return to Skegness Butlin's as state of room leaves them in tears

Colin Newton and his wife, Paula, stayed at a Butlin's resort in Skegness, Lincolnshire, for just one night before leaving due to unsanitary conditions in their room. Upon arrival, they reported smelling sickness and discovered what they described as blood and fecal matter on their bedding. Despite multiple attempts to clean the room, the couple was left with contaminated curtains, a stained quilt, and a double bed covered in sand and food debris. Colin, a former police officer, identified blood on the bed, prompting them to abandon their stay. They expressed frustration over the lack of proper cleaning and unresolved issues by the end of their short visit.
