WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW...
Everything in our huts are yours to use – please help yourself to the crockery and cutlery through to the toys and hot water bottles. We expect some wear and tear and occasional breakages, so don’t worry if this happens but do please let us know so we can fix or replace it.
​
Please leave the huts as you would wish to find them (for our next visitors) and take all of your rubbish away. Please ensure that the beach hut keys are returned to the key safe and the numbers are mixed up (not showing the correct combination) when you leave.

Please do follow and tag us on our Instagram and Facebook accounts (@EssexBeachHutHire) with any of your hut photos, and please let us know about your stay in our guest book. We welcome all feedback, both positive and negative, so if there’s anything you would change to make your stay better, please do get in contact and let us know. If you have a pushchair or wheelchair you can still use our huts, although our Capri Hut is easier to get to. You would unfortunately not be able to get a wheelchair into either of the beach huts.

Please do not to leave the stove on unattended and fully disconnect the gas upon departure.
