We won’t

forget 2019

What a fabulous year 2019 was here at Mill Rythe...

F

rom glittering productions, where the kids were the stars of the show, to fabulous acts and fun for all the family!

We painted the park red (and lots of other colours!) at our hugely popular Colour Festival. We walked through an enchanted woodland with Bear in the Woods, and went on a magical adventure with Aladdin and his flying carpet. And of course, we made a great big mess during our ever-growing Cream Pie Fight! There was never a dull moment and 2020 promises to be packed full of even more surprises!

Away Resorts

Theatre Company F

ounded in 2019, the Away Resorts Theatre Company is made up of a talented group of vocalists, dancers and actors exclusive to Away Resorts.

They present some of the finest stage production shows for holiday guests to enjoy; featuring world-class costumes, choreography, musical direction, musicians and visual effects.

The team constantly go the extra mile to put on some of the best shows and performances across our Mill Rythe breaks. With a whole host of new shows consistently being produced and performed, make sure you look out for them on your next stay!

We can’t wait for you to see them!

Claire Hoyle

Entertainment Cast & Company Manager

What is the one thing you love most about your job?

I love the variation of my job - from the casting to welfare, to still being part of the production shows and getting that buzz from the audience every night. But I think if I had to choose one part of working within Away Resorts, it’d be the atmosphere in the Mill Rythe Ballroom created by the guests. They really are part of the Away Resorts family.

14

You were previously part of the Show Cast, if you could go back in time to your favourite night and performance at Mill Rythe, what would it be?

I’ve been lucky enough to be back in some of the productions this year. We always get a great reaction from guests, which we never take for granted. For me, every opening night of a new show is so special. That excitement of not knowing what’ll happen, how it’ll be received, and of course the celebration afterwards... I just love it!

If you could book anyone to perform at Mill Rythe, who would you book?

Ooh good question! I think it’d have to be Lea Salonga (original Kim in Miss Saigon). She’s always been a bit of an icon for me.

If you could star in any musical, as any character, who would you be and why?

Mamma Mia has a special place in my heart as it’s my Mum and I’s favourite. Recently I’ve discovered the musical Six (the story of King Henry and his eight wives, but with a modern twist!) which is fast becoming a favourite of mine too! But a part I’ve always wanted to play is Kathy in a musical called The Last 5 Years...not many people know it, but it’s definitely worth a look! awayresorts.co.uk/mill-rythe

Shake, Rattle & Rock

Hold on to your air-guitars as we go back to the ‘50s! Revel in glam rock, punk rock and everything in between.

Magic of Musicals A journey through theatre history as we celebrate the greatest musicals of all time.

Electric Dreams

Three-course dinner If variety is the spice of life then our evening menu may be almost too hot to handle!

There’s a three-course meal to look forward to after each day’s adventures and whilst the menus change depending on what produce is in season and the theme of the night, one thing that remains constant is that there’s something for everyone. From classic dishes such as shepherd’s pie, fish ‘n’ chips and bangers & mash to a range of exotic options for the more adventurous.

On-park shop Our on-park convenience / gift shop has sweet treats if you need something to keep you going between meals.

We do not provide supervision of the children during sessions.

21.2 It is important that you always know where your children are and that you know the times that the activities start and finish. It is particularly important that you ensure your children understand they should always obey the instructions of the Entertainment Team members, Sports Instructors and other staff so that the possibility of accidents can be reduced. There are open waterways such as lakes, rivers and beaches on some of our parks and care must be taken to supervise children at all times around these waterways.

In busy times, we will require you to exit the swimming pool once your session is complete.

23.5 The operation of our Parks is subject to legislation and the guidelines laid down by the Health & Safety Executive and Local Authorities and their codes of practice and we have the right to adjust our services in order to meet these standards.

Your Holiday Environment 24.1 Our parks are situated in rural and coastal locations, partly covered by an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, on Heritage Coasts and adjacent to Sites of Special Scientific Interest or Conservation Areas. These areas may be unfamiliar to you and because of this it is advisable to acquaint yourselves with your holiday environment as soon as you arrive. Walking over grassy and often undulating ground, or through wooded parkland, may also be unfamiliar and may contain aspects of wildlife such as rabbit holes that you and your children need to avoid.

24.2 Local Authority planning constraints, which help to preserve the rural nature of Away Resorts Ltd properties also limit the amount of street lighting we can provide in some areas of the park. Lighting is also intentionally reduced to help children to sleep at night. So please take care when walking around the park, particularly at night, and remember that you are in an unfamiliar environment. It is always advisable to carry a pocket torch to help you avoid any accidents.

24.3 We check smoke alarms regularly and always between bookings but please check yours on arrival and throughout your stay and inform us if they are not working. Never remove batteries or disable or interfere with smoke alarms.
