BEST MOMENTS

"This is not about pimping your beach hut, though this would make an entertaining episode if the BBC are listening."

"Mains power and the use of that lovely 3-pin plug is no longer a prerequisite for luxury living at your beach hut."

"Battery powered CoolBoxes are a thing and I'm going to stay with the Makita one for now because, well, it's a thing of absolute beauty."

"These blenders have come a long way, and whilst they are not as powerful as conventional blenders, most can produce a pretty good smoothie."

"When choosing a power bank, consider the watt-hours. That's the measure of energy capacity."



HOST BIO

My name is Natalie Young. I bought a beach hut to bring joy into my life after escaping an abusive relationship and a difficult divorce.  Based in Christchurch, Dorset, my beach hut is affectionally called the Salty Seagull and is located on Friars Cliff beach with sea views to the Needles on the Isle of White. It is my slice of heaven. 

Owning and hiring a beach hut is more complicated than I realised and I am on a constant mission to discover the best ways to manage and care for your hut. I have researched the pros and cons of renting and the best ways to market and host.

The beach, the sights and the sounds of the sea bring me huge joy. I hope this podcast will bring you smiles, laughter and joy too!

Welcome to the Bonkers about Beach Huts podcast. The show all about beach huts

Whether you are thinking of buying a beach hut and don’t know where to begin or if you have had a beach hut in your family for generations this podcast is for you.

Across the country, I will be creating the UK's first beach hut map.  I will give tips on where and how to buy a beach hut. And share everything you need to know about beach hut maintenance plus advice on hiring a beach hut.

There will be a new show every week. We will be chatting to special guests from estate agents to lock specialists, beach hut associations to beach hut builders, and artists to interior designers. 

If you don’t own a beach hut but would love to or just love the coastal lifestyle, you can live vicariously through our podcast as I travel across the UK exploring these coastal retreats and sharing personal stories of how the humble beach hut has shaped lives.

Beach huts are finally getting the appreciation they deserve, if you don’t know what all the fuss is about, join us every week and you too will be a little bit bonkers about beach huts.
