Gun safes: which sort is best?

I live in Europe and over here a gun licence holder is required to have a gun safe at home for secure storage.

My question is which type is best, from a security point of view. I would hate to have any of my stuff stolen, but a gun falling into the wrong hands is a rather disturbing thought.

I am considering two types: both long enough to hold shotties. The difference lies in how they are closed.

One has a digital key pad that you enter a code into. This is slightly cheaper than the other model I am considering which simply has a key, albeit a decent one, with several cylinders/tumblers, whatever the term is for locks.

They are not high end models: those are too epensive, but they are decent.

I understand that neither is Fort Knox, and someone with the skills could break in, but which is harder to crack?

Only answers based on experience please!!
