Select ‘Beach Hut Hire’ from the menu above and click through to the beach hut you’d like to hire.

Select the dates you’d like on the calendar and enter your name, mobile number and email. Then press ‘Book’. This will take you to an online payment where you can pay with a credit card, debit card, or Paypal.

You’ll automatically be sent a confirmation email with all the information you need.

If you would like to hire a hut on a day that you’re already at the beach, call 07739 426358 and we’ll come and open it up for you.

When we launch new huts and release our booking calendars we announce these via our email updates which you can sign up for here.

The council has strict limits on numbers of people at beach huts. Breaking this limit may mean we lose our licence to hire out. Please do not put our small family business at risk.

We are also conscious that we want to be good neighbours to other beach hut owners. We therefore limit the number of people who can book a hut. Each hut is only equipped for six people. It would not be possible for more than six people to sit in the hut if it rains, or to sit on the path outside the hut if the tide is very high. We therefore ask our guests to respect our six person limit both inside and outside the hut. This includes children.

PLEASE NOTE: We regularly walk by the huts. If you are seen to have more than six people you will not be able to hire from us again. We reserve the right to refuse future bookings when you breach our terms and conditions.

We publish cancellations on our Instagram and FB stories.

All our huts are on the front row of Eastcliff beach. They’re sat right next to the sand and all are on the dog friendly part of the beach except for Sophie, Peggie, Mac’s and Anne-Marie – dogs are not permitted in these huts or on the beach in front of this hut.  Please see the Map.

The nearest places to park are Cliff Parade, East Terrace, Beatrice Road, Percival Road, Green Lane and Florence Road. Parking is FREE. This parking is less than a minute walk to the beach huts. Postcode: CO14 8HB.

The nearest paid carpark is Coronation Carpark at the Bathhouse Meadow. A five minute walk away.

When you book you’ll automatically be sent an email with all the details you need including the access code to the hut.

Well behaved dogs are allowed on the beach all year round on this stretch of the beach in front of Lizzie, Emily, Ellen, Betty, Pickle, Rosina, Doll, Margaret and Monica. There are restrictions between May and September further up the beach towards Hipkins Tea Room so please pay attention to the signs. We allow one dog per booking in these huts and provide a water bowl, poo bags and some dog treats. Please pick up after your dog, and ensure it doesn’t cause a nuisance to other beach goers.

Dogs are not permitted in Peggie, Sophie, Mac’s or Anne-Marie.

Please contact us with the details of your dogs if you would like to bring more than one.

The huts can be accessed by steps and a (fairly steep) slope so it is possible to get a wheelchair or child’s buggy to the front of the hut.

Ellen, Nell, Lizzie, Emily, Betty and Pickle have two steps up from the prom to the inside of the hut. The prom sits right on the sand and is usually a small step down (ankle deep). The level of the sand will be determined by how strong the tide is. We provide caravan steps to use to access the beach if the sand levels are low. Looking at the photos of the huts will give you a good idea of accessibility.

Peggie, Margaret, Rosina, Monica and Doll have six steps from the prom up to the inside of the hut. The prom sits right on the sand and is usually a small step down (calf deep). The level of the sand will be determined by how strong the tide is. We provide caravan steps to use to access the beach if the sand levels are low. Looking at the photos of the huts will give you a good idea of accessibility.

Sophie, Mac’s and Anne-Marie have two steps up from the prom to the inside of the hut but the path they sit on is quite high off the sand (3 – 4 feet) so access to the beach is down the beach steps which are very close by. Looking at the photos of the hut will give you a good idea of accessibility.

Wheelchair access into the huts themselves is not possible.

There is no running water in the huts.

The fresh water tap is less than a minute’s walk from all the huts. Other water taps are available at various places along the prom. Water containers are provided for your use.

Daily hire is 7am – 6pm.

If you hire for more than one consecutive day you may use the hut
7am – 10pm on your first day
7am – 10pm on the next day(s)
7am – 6pm on your last day

Please vacate by 6pm to allow our cleaning team enough daylight hours to check all the huts before the next guests.

There are no toilets in the huts. Public toilets are available.

Turn left out of the huts and walk for less than five minutes. Public toilets are situated at the bottom of the steps to the Naze Park. If you’ve got to Hipkin’s Tea Room you’ve gone too far! Ladies, gents, disabled toilets (accessible by a radar key) and baby changing facilities are available and are cleaned daily. A Changing Places toilet is available on Bathhouse meadow, around 5-10 minutes walk away.

There is no electricity in any of the beach huts in Walton. This means there is no fridge available so we recommend you bring a cool bag if you have food items you’d like to keep chilled. There is a gas bottle and gas stove for you to use. Full instructions are available in the huts.

We provide a gas stove, frying pan, saucepan, crockery and cutlery so you’ve everything you need to make your own food and drink. If you need to stock up, Naze Park Stores on Hall Lane is less than a five minute walk away. In the town itself there is a Co-op, Tesco Express, Aldi and M&S food store.

If you’d rather let someone else do the cooking, turn right out of either hut and The Last Fisherman’s Cafe is less than a minute walk and is situated right on the beach front. There you can buy fish and chips, hot and cold drinks, snacks and icecreams. This kiosk is open every day in the school holidays, at weekends from April – Oct (and sometimes midweek if it’s sunny).

Turn left out of the huts and less than a five minute walk away is Hipkin’s Tea Room, which also serves hot and cold food and drinks. This cafe is open every day from May half term until end of September.

You can pre-order graze boards and cream teas to be delivered to the beach huts from local firm, French Fancies Grazing.

No. BBQs are not permitted.

Ellen, Nell, Lizzie, Emily, Betty, Pickle
99% of the time there is 6-12 feet of dry sand outside all of our huts at high tide. In the summer months there are half a dozen occasions where the tide will come right in and up to the path, covering all the sand. It’s impossible for us to predict when that might happen. When the tide comes right in the whole of the beach is covered for around an hour before it goes out again. There is room for up to six people to sit outside the huts on the path. Please do not block the path so that people can pass.

There is usually 6-12 feet of dry sand outside the hut at high tide. However, there are multiple occassions during the summer months where the tide will come right in and up to the path, covering all the sand. It’s impossible for us to predict when that might happen. When the tide comes right in the whole of the beach is covered for around an hour before it goes out again. There is room for up to six people to sit outside the huts on the path. Please do not block the path so that people can pass.

Sophie, Mac’s, Anne-Marie
The tide comes up to the path every day. Usually there is about an hour before the tide turns and goes out again revealing the sand. There is room for up to six people to sit outside the hut on the path. Please do not block the path so that people can pass.

We recommend you check the tide times before you book. TIDE TIMES HERE

Overnight stays are not allowed in these huts but there is plenty of holiday accommodation available on Airbnb. The nearest caravan park is the Park Dean Naze Marine. We also have four amazing holiday lets available here.
