THE future of the UK’s only Beach Hut festival, which takes place on the east coast, has been secured thanks to a funding boost.

The Mablethorpe Tourism Forum is to receive £52,108 spread across three years for the Festival of Bathing Beauties held annually towards the end of the summer season.

The funding comes from the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE) and has been awarded through the Coastal Action Zone Local Action Group.

Chalkbass says

“Its the placing not removing of beach huts/sheds for the upcoming summer season at Minnis bay on the north kent (UK) coast. The winter storms break over the promenade so the beach huts have to go into storage somewhere, i know not where, inland for the winter, its a sign when they arrive that summer cant be that far away!”

THIS weatherboard box could be Victoria’s most expensive real estate. A pair of young families yesterday paid $455,000 (£251,214) for the 22-square-metre boat shed at auction because they wanted a place to store their beach gear.

Auctioneer Warwick Anderson said the sale of Boat Shed 21 on Shelley Beach in Portsea eclipsed the previous record of $362,000 two years ago.

”The new buyers both have houses off the cliff, out the back of Portsea,” he said. ”They were sick of lugging all their stuff up and down the beach.”

ananova reports

More than 20 people braved sub-zero temperatures to queue overnight in Dorset to try and secure a beach hut for the summer.

The group camped outside in temperatures as low as -8C for the huts, which are let on a first-come-first-serve basis at Avon Beach in Christchurch.

At the front of the queue was Kim Abbott who had spent the last six nights sleeping in a camper van to make sure she secured the only hut available on a long-term let.

The remainder joined her in the queue from noon on Thursday to snap up the 16 other 6ft by 4ft huts that were only available to hire for six weeks of the summer, costing £400.
