Beach Huts - by Kate Ferry


Lexmatica – Beach Huts!


Beach huts are a very important colourful part of British beach life! They can be found on every beach in Britain. Beach huts are not only comfortable, but, practical, too! They provide shelter when its windy, and keep you dry when it rains. Beach huts are perfect accommodation for seaside holidays. They have enough beds for five or six people, a kitchenette, a small bathroom and a WC. Beach huts are not only popular in Britain, they are liked in India, too! But, the British love them the most!
