BEST MOMENTS

"I bought a beach hut to help me celebrate life and moving on from a difficult to a more joyful life."

"Did you know, statistically, there is some kind of major life event every five years? This is normal. This is life."

"I missed her. In the summer, I got a promotion at work that took me to Milton Keynes during the week."

"I was learning about the beach hut market. I found that much like open top car sale, prices in the summer months increased and beach huts sold more quickly."

"Crafting a life at sea isn't quite as straightforward as you might believe, especially when you have commitments such as a full-time job, a very old car, differentials of housing."

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.
