Shed of the Year judge Kathryn Ferry gets a quote in this article from the Times about the state of the beach hut market in the UK.
Our love affair with all things coastal shows no sign of ebbing away, so much so that even as financial markets implode the world over the humble beach hut still holds its own.
Nowhere is this more evident than in Bournemouth, where Glynn Evans, of Savills, is the estate agent handling the sale of a luxury beach chalet on the market for £45,000. Evans agrees that the Royal Balcony chalet, which is fully equipped for up to eight people, “isn’t the typical Savills property†but says that feedback so far has been encouraging.
