As I have never been to Haven, I'm just wondering what activities are free (included in holiday cost) and which you would have to pay for.
I am particularly interested in the Primrose Valley park, which as far as I can tell from the Haven website has the following facilities / attractions. Could someone who has been please tell me which of these are free and which are pay as you go?
- Funfair
- Go Karts
- Boating lake
- Funpools (indoor & outdoor)
- Climbing wall
- Crazy golf
- Evening shows
Plus anything else they have that I haven't mentioned.

I haven't worked at PV for two years now but here's a list of "Included" things:-
ALL POOLS & SPLASH ZONES.
ALL ENTERTAINMENT IN VENUES
ROAD TRAIN
And that I am affraid is that.
The reason why is that BL run the above but all the rest are franchised out and part of the contract "ASKS" for free use for 'Owners' but most of the things are half-price to them.

at pv the things that are free included in the price you pay are,
The multiy complex fun pools, the evening entertainmet ( summer holidays day time )
kids clubs.
and that is all.
Pv did have or still does have challets, but they didnt look very inviting,
and they are miles away from the main night venues,
so pushbutton if you are thinking of going ther for a week, weekend,
so well and good.
the site is very nice and well set out,or it was last i was there, and the staff are friendly,
but it is caravan after caravan on a cliff top, and since you have been to butlins, you just wont get the same

I'm not really thinking of staying there, more just interested to compare it to Butlins. Thanks for all the answers guys!
I must say though it sounds like at Primrose Valley there is at least as much to do as at Butlins, and probably MORE! If only it was all inclusive (and perhaps they might need a few more chalets?) then it would probably make a fantastic Butlins.
