The resorts have been closed with all upcoming trips cancelled for devastated families.

"Customers whose bookings will be affected by these closures will be contacted by our team and refunded. We apologise for any inconvenience caused."
The holidays will not go ahead for families who have booked a winter trip at the resorts.
Holidaymakers have been offered a refund but many have shared their sadness on the official Pontins Holidays Facebook page.
One wrote: "I had a feeling this was going to happen. Sad times."
"Why would you start refurbishment and then just close down it’s so sad," another said.
The Prestatyn branch was already closed, however this was said to be for renovations. A third questioned why it has now closed "for good".
Pontins is a family resort which had six locations in the UK.
Customers will now only be able to visit locations at Pakefield Holiday Village, Southport Holiday Park and Sand Bay Holiday Village.
