Beach Hut of the Year Competition!

Entries for the 2010 Beach Hut of the Year competition are already flooding in – have you entered yours yet?!! The winners will not be decided until later in the year, but the current entries can be viewed on the competition’s website where you can rate the beach huts your self – it really is worth a look!

There are four categories for the 2010 competition:

Best Kept Hut

Best Beach Hut Design

Best Beach Hut Name

Beach Hut ‘Hero’

There are an estimated 23,000 beach huts in the UK, most of which can be found on the south and east coasts of England. There are lots of beach huts to be found at various beaches near to our West Sussex Showroom, including those pictured at Littlehampton Beach!

It is known that purpose built beach huts – a development of the 18th century bathing machines – were in use at Felixstowe, Suffolk in 1895 although due to the their very nature and situation it is very unlikely than any of those will have survived until today! The first municipal huts were built by Bournemouth Corporation in 1908, and their original design is little changed today. If you are planning a holiday to Bournemouth, why not visit Bournemouth Beach Hut Rentals and hire one out for yourself?!

If you are lucky enough to own your own beach hut, cool coastal colours are a must! Our New Harbour Outdoor Chairs and matching New Harbour Ourdoor Side Table would not only look great outside your beach hut on a glorious summer’s day, they are so comfy – just the thing for a relaxing day at the seaside!

If like us you are in love with the seaside, you will love flicking through Coast Magazine; always full of great articles, locations and coastal style.
