For a truly traditional seaside experience why not hire a beach hut! First invented in Bournemouth, the beach hut offers a perfect day at the beach. Whilst some of Bournemouth’s beach huts are the oldest in the UK, things have changed a bit now with funky beach pods and luxury beach lodges also available to rent alongside the traditional style huts. With various designs in a number of locations along Bournemouth and Poole beaches you’re bound to find a beach hut to suit your needs.
Beach Huts Bournemouth
Bournemouth has over 250 beach huts for hire at Alum Chine, Durley Chine, Bournemouth, Boscombe, Southbourne and Fishermans Walk.
Each comes equipped with a cupboard, a side table, four deck chairs, a gas ring and curtains. Please note that no crockery or cooking utensils are provided. Access ramps are also available from beach offices for wheelchair users.
Or why not go a little more modern and hire a funky beach pod at Boscombe Beach?
These pods have been designed by Wayne Hemingway MBE and Geraldine Hemingway MBE and have each been individually designed. The pods, which are exclusive to Bournemouth, feature mains electric and a private balcony with beautiful views of the Isle of Wight and the Purbeck coast. Slightly more upmarket than the average beach hut, each pod comes complete with a kitchenette, two deck chairs, directors chairs and a table. These pods are only available for weekly hire but are a wonderful place to entertain friends while enjoying the sand and surf of Boscombe.
Or why not go the whole hog and rent one of the new contemporary Bournemouth Beach Lodges, available for self-catering holidays for three, four or seven nights throughout the year! They can sleep up to 5 (4 adults and 1 child) and come complete with compact bathroom with WC, basin, heated towel radiator and shower, fully equipped galley kitchenette with hob, integrated fridge and storage, slimline storage throughout the Lodge, TV with Freeview and Free Wi-Fi.
A four week minimum means that daily and weekly hire is not available for beach huts. For full details and pricing please visit https://www.bournemouth.co.uk/things-to-do/beach-hut-hire/beach-hut-hire-prices
