Beacholme Holiday Camp Cleethorpes 1994
A trip down memory lane visiting Beacholme Holiday Camp Cleethorpes in 1994.
I used to Holiday there with my family as a child in the 1960s

Went there years ago with parents and another family in caravans. Our babysitter with the other family was very, very obliging.🤫
I used to clean those chalets then go swimming - happy days
My mum and grandma used to clean them on Saturday morning. I used to help as a kid
Our family came here in August '76 and August '77; happy memories of a simple family holiday playing cricket on the green in front of the chalets by the road!
How bizarre. When I was a kid we had a caravan there, early 80’s. Went back to work there summer 94 and the caravan was still there, so you were accurate in your commentary. Wasn’t bingo in the hut by the arcade? There was a little joke and magic trick shop too, across the road.
my dad and me wresteled there every sunday in the 70s 80s throughout the summer session
Looks Grim 😏😏
Ted's Den was The Boat House :o)
My dad was the guitarist in the band that played every night in the club from 1970 to 1985.
We were on holiday there in 1970, so he must have been there then. We stayed in a caravan, and I can remember watching Thoroughly Modern Millie, and dancing to Mr Bloe - Groovin.
We spent summer holidays every year when i was a kid around the late 70's. Was a great place then, sad to see it like that really. Remember the huge plastic illuminated stars along the road edge by the chalets.
Is it still there? We went there in 1973
It looks like it's called BeachComber now, still there on the google Earth on the 2018 imagery, but all the chalets have gone and replaced with caravans.
@@markding2072 It might be called Cleethorpes Pearl Holiday Park now
Does anyone know anywhere online where there is footage of the inside of Wonderland? Although a Londoner since 1973, I lived in Grimsby for 12 years and spent a lot of time inside Wonderland in the mid-1960's.
I used to love Wonderland. We'd take the train that stopped near Beacholme into Cleethorpes and then go right to the far end where Wonderland was situated and got absolutely terrified on the Mad Mouse!
In 1976 when i was 6 my family bought a caravan on here and @23 secs i used to go around the back of the first building on the left over the high wooden fence and steal empty pop bottles and take them into the shop at the front to get a 10p refund on the empty bottle and then spend it at the amusements @ 43 secs. The amusements later turned into a snooker hall. in the 1970's the snooker place was above the amusements @23 secs. My father won the snooker tournament in 1976 also here and still got the photograph with him holding the trophy with all the men & woman in suits inside the building @ 3:30. In the same year a one arm bandit was faulty and you could pull it as many times as you want without putting money in it and end up getting £3 in 1p pieces. In that amusement was a machine where you insert a coin into the slot into a piece of metal that moved left & right a little and then you had to get the coin in between the lines to win on the rolling belt and then all the coins would come rolling down the glass slope and you frantically trying to catch them all. I think its all gone now and has just been bought by another company. I remember clearly of the song if i can't have you by yvonne elliman been played when i went past those slots in 1977. Haha them where the days.
Hi, do you have any footage at the the Pleasure Island theme park located next door to Thorpe park?
