BEACH HUT – WHY WE LOVE IT

WE LOVE IT…

Because of the hut’s close proximity to the new Kingsway to the Sea development.

FROM THE BEACH HUTTER – WE LOVE IT TOO

We’ve had so many years of fun here as a family. This was the perfect location for our very active kids – there is no wall so you’re basically right on the beach and at the same time right on the green for football and frisbee. And also so close to the cafe and the loos!
