‘Paradise Found’ in a bright yellow beach hut, among about 300 colourful holiday hideaways lining the Promenade and other seafront sites at Southwold, Suffolk, England, UK, that have become iconic symbols of the British seaside vacation. The lockable timber cabins, most with shutters and verandas, have evolved from humble traditional fishermen’s huts into highly sought-after real estate at this small East Anglian resort. Holidaymakers usually rent them well before the season starts. Many are passed down in local families, but those that do come on the market can sell for six-figure sums.
Southwold, Suffolk, England, United Kingdom: ‘Paradise Found’ in a bright yellow beach hut, one of about 300 colourful holiday hideaways lining the Promenade and other seafront sites at this small East Anglian resort on the Suffolk Heritage Coast. The privately-owned lockable wooden cabins, most with shutters and verandas, have evolved from humble traditional fishermen’s huts into highly sought-after real estate that has become an iconic symbol of the British seaside vacation. Most are rented by holidaymakers well in advance of the holiday season. Although many are passed down through the generations in local families, those that do come on to the market can fetch high prices, with some now selling for six-figure sums.
