A man caused a disturbance at a popular Isle of Wight holiday park after a drunken argument with his partner.
Mark Campbell, of London Road, East Grinstead, West Sussex, appeared before Isle of Wight magistrates on Tuesday, November 12.
The 51-year-old admitted using threatening/abusive words/behaviour likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress, in Shanklin, on October 27.
Prosecutor, Lauren McConnell, said police were called to an incident at Landguard Holiday Park in Shanklin at around 9pm.
She said Campbell was in the clubhouse with his partner, and when staff overheard the pair arguing, they became concerned for the partner’s welfare.
The court heard Campbell called his partner unsavoury words and turned his attention on staff, and later attending police officers, shouting and swearing while in drink.

Ms McConnell told the bench Campbell was put in a police van, and after swearing in front of a young girl and her family, he proceeded to headbutt a cage.
Campbell, representing himself, said something switched in his head, he had children of his own, and there was no excuse.
He was fined £120 and ordered to pay costs of £85 and a £48 surcharge.
