What’s the point in a beach hut?

You can have some of your best childhood memories in a beach hut. Eating sausage rolls and jam tarts, while sitting in a deck chair, after a dip in the sea, listening to the kettle whistle as it comes to the boil, filled with water you fetched from the tap, for another cup of tea, before walking down the prom to buy an ice cream (this sounds like something out of Enid Blyton but I assure you I'm only in my mid-30s!). And if this wasn't your childhood you can try to replicate it with your own children (mine love it too) 🙃 Seriously though, it's a great little base for fun days by the sea. Our hut has been in the family for over 70 years. It's a shame they're so expensive now because it has given generations of our working class family a little piece of seaside life.
