Annual and winter tenancy of Bude beach huts
Fancy having a beach hut to call your own? A good number of the huts at both Crooklets and Summerleaze are set-aside for annual tenancies. Many of the huts we use for daily hire are leased out on a seasonal tenancy for the off-peak period. There are no qualifying criteria - anyone can have a beach hut, but demand is high and there is a long waiting list for the most popular beach huts. Â
