The People's Friend

A Family Affair

-

Beach huts are beloved for many reasons. Aside from obvious practical uses, in providing shelter from the elements, refuge from fellow beachgoers, changing space, as well as housing the all-important kettle, they also offer peace and solitude, or provide social spaces to share with family and friends.

The appeal of the beach hut transcends generation­s and social groups, and they are as likely to attract hen parties as they are retired couples and family groups.
