England is currently under a third national lockdown with a stay at home order which is expected to last until mid-February, although the government has not yet said whether it plans to end or extend the restrictions.
Meanwhile, Scotland and Wales are also under national lockdowns.
Originally Butlin's had said it would keep its resorts closed until February 14, but now the holiday parks firm has confirmed it will keep resorts closed until February 28.
The brand made a statement on Twitter explaining that the decision came "due to the uncertainty around when the current restrictions will be lifted".
