How do I apply for a hut?

Applications are available online in January each year. The application process closes in early February and there is a draw for huts to ensure fairness. We will email you to tell you if you have been successful and you will have 10 days to make your payment and secure your booking. 

How accessible are the huts?

Huts 1-10 have a grassy slope in front of them, but they can be accessed by a path that runs to the side of number 10. There are disabled parking spaces behind the block of huts. Huts 11- 20 are only accessible via steps. Huts from 80 back are closest to the public toilets.

Do the huts come with electricity and water?

The huts do not have electricity or mains water to them.

Can I pick which hut I have?

The draw for the huts is completely random to ensure everyone has fair opportunity. However should you have any special requirements that we need to take into consideration this can be mentioned.

Can I use BBQs in front of my hut?

BBQs are prohibited in beach huts or outside of beach huts on the walk way. The walk way in front of the hut should be made clear at all times to ensure the right of way is maintained.
