Yes. As this is effectively a holiday booking and to help customers book with confidence during the current COVID-19 outbreak, we will continue to follow the official guidance from the UK Government and Public Health England. Should we need to make any changes to our services or restrict access to beach huts due to COVID-19 Government imposed restrictions, we will advise customers as soon as possible and provide a pro-rata refund.
Customers who fall ill due to COVID-19 or are required to self-isolate, please contact us as soon as possible. Please note that if your booking has started and then you fall ill, we are unable to provide any refund as we will be unable to re-let the hut.
As a beach hut user, it is important that you self-enforce any social distancing requirements. In addition, if your beach hut is located on the promenade, you are required to use the beach area for any tables and chairs and not place these on the promenade itself. This will help to keep the promenade clear, aid social distancing and ensure your safety as well as the safety of other beach users.
No. All beach users should follow the official guidance from the UK Government and Public Health England. Please plan your visit carefully and if you are in any doubt then please do not use your hut.
