Overview

A first line beach hut facing straight onto Friars Cliff beach with fabulous views over to the Isle of Wight and the Needles. Being close to amenities – toilets, water tap, shower, the Beach Cafe - and with nearby parking it's a perfect base for fun and relaxing days by the sea.

The hut is equipped for 6 people – chairs, tables, glasses, tumblers, mugs, plates, kettle etc etc (inventory supplied). 2 burner calor gas stove (gas supplied). There is also a sun umbrella and base (be careful if using – it's heavy!) for your comfort. There's some beach toys, buckets, spades, balls, frisbee etc – but you might like to bring your own.

If you fancy a walk, you can either stroll through the Steamer Point woods or along the beach and up the steps or zigzag to Highclffe Castle which can be visited and also has a cafe. Or why not treat yourself to lunch or dinner at the Noisy Lobster restaurant a little further along the prom?

To the east is Hengistbury Head – a small ferry runs from Mudeford Quay to there and Christchurch. So as well as sunbathing, relaxing, playing on the beach there's lots in the area to do also and the beach hut makes a great base.

The beach is 'dog friendly' and there is a grassy area nearby for ball games, etc.

To be flexible with booking arrangements, if you wish to change, this may be  possible subject to availability. If you wish to cancel, fees may be applicable, depending on the period of notice given.

(H)utter Madness beach hut was so lovely, clean and had everything we needed for our day visit there. The instructions from the owner were very good and clear so everything went to plan. The location was perfect, the Steamer car park was just a couple of minutes walk to the beach hut and as we took our 2 year old grand-daughter and it was so close to the beach, she loved it as much as we did. Would definitely recommend to friends to hire out for a trip to Christchurch.

Hiring (H)utter Madness has been the highlight of my summer. Clean, cozy, great spot, gorgeous view. I loved every second. Sat on a chair, watching the sea change colour over several hours whilst drinking tea… nothing better. I could watch my kids playing on the beach whilst relaxing. It was heaven.

Lovely beach hut, beautiful position, fitted out with everything you would need for a day at the beach. Communication was prompt and welcoming from Judie, all instructions really clear and helpful. We had a fantastic day and will look forward to rebooking in the future. Thank you!

Luckily the owner arrived to greet us & attended to a problem with some chair covers. All the locks are a little confusing. Maybe some colour coding on keys & locks might help but definitely needs two people. Hut very well equipped & in a brilliant part of Friars Cliff beach.

This beach hut is ideal, from its location to how well it is kitted out, the owners have thought of everything and the instructions for collecting the keys to finding the hut and unlocking the padlocks are extremely clear, a definite find.
